The Satellite Newsletter #46

Dear Valued Member of the Moonfare Network,

What to read this summer to make greater sense of the world in flux?

You can start with our selection of thought-provoking titles ranging from finance, geopolitics to technology and rounded out with a few fiction picks for reflection and inspiration.

Turning the page to markets — the first half of 2025 was nothing short of eventful. How is private equity holding up? Our mid-year report reveals an industry growing more selective and focused.

Meanwhile, semi-liquid open-ended funds are clearly gaining momentum. We’ve zoomed in on two key aspects: their potential to deliver compounding returns and the growing synergy between semi-liquids and secondaries.

Happy reading!
