New KKR Report Focuses on Role of Private Markets in Individual Investor Portfolios
“We believe that a confluence of tectonic geopolitical and macroeconomic shifts, a shrinking and more concentrated public company universe and expanded access to private markets are making asset classes such as Private Equity, Private Credit, Private Infrastructure and Private Real Estate more attractive to individual investors than ever before,” said Ms. Roberts. “Individuals will need to balance a number of personal considerations such as age, sources of income and life circumstances to find the right mix of these assets for their portfolios, which can be done with the help of a trusted financial advisor or private banker.”
Roberts and her team propose proprietary models for diversifying beyond the traditional stock and bond 60/40 portfolio, which seek to achieve the following three primary objectives:
- Generate Income: Aims to increase yield while maintaining access to liquidity by including a substantial bond allocation and reallocating from Public Equities to more yield-oriented alternative asset classes such as Private Credit, Private Real Assets and Private Infrastructure.
- Preserve Capital: Designed to increase stability of returns while providing inflation hedging benefits through allocations to Private Credit and Private Infrastructure, which tend to exhibit low volatility and reliable hedging characteristics.
- Boost Returns: Enhances total return potential by reallocating some bond exposure to Private Equity, Private Credit and Private Infrastructure while maintaining a healthy exposure to Public Equities.
The report also notes that understanding cash management is critical to successfully implementing allocations to private markets alternatives and shares a framework for liquidity management that involves segmenting liquid and illiquid investments and mapping private markets investment funding and harvesting expectations.
