The democratisation of private markets has been a leading theme in the industry, and Moonfare remains at the forefront of this mega trend. But what does the recent shift in economic sentiment mean for the market, and what does the future hold?
Our CEO, Dr Steffen Pauls, sat down to discuss these themes on the latest episode of Dry Powder, an industry-leading podcast by Bain.
Key highlights from Steffen’s conversation with Bain’s head of private equity, Hugh MacArthur, include:
- Why the past year has been an ‘inflection point’ in terms of accelerating demand for private market assets.
- The reasons behind Moonfare’s decision to go global at an early stage.
- How blockchain and tokenisation could be the backbone of the industry’s future.

Steffen also featured in Bain’s Global Private Equity Report 2023, which was released earlier this year. In particular, he spoke to Bain about why private equity is targeting retail investors, and the need for liquidity mechanisms.

Important information
This is a marketing communication. Moonfare does not make investment recommendations and no communication, through this website or in any other medium should be construed as a recommendation for any security offered on or off this investment platform. Alternative investments in private placements, and private equity investments via feeder funds in particular, are speculative and involve a high degree of risk and those investors who cannot afford to lose their entire investment should not invest. Prospective investors should carefully consider the risk warnings and disclosures for the respective fund or investment vehicle set out therein. The value of an investment may go down as well as up and investors may not get back their money originally invested. Past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance. An investment in a fund or investment vehicle is not the same as a deposit with a banking institution. Please refer to the respective fund documentation for details about potential risks, charges and expenses. Additionally, investors will typically receive illiquid and/or restricted membership interests that may be subject to holding period requirements and/or liquidity concerns. In the most sensible investment strategy for private equity investing, private equity should only be part of your overall investment portfolio. Further, the private equity portion of your portfolio may include a balanced portfolio of different private equity funds. Investments in private equity are highly illiquid and those investors who cannot hold an investment for the long term (at least 10 years) should not invest.
