KBRA Releases Recaps of SuperReturn North America Conferences and Global Secondaries Summit

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA releases recaps of Informa Connect’s SuperReturn conferences for Private Equity, Energy and Private Credit held on September 12-14 in New York and the Global Secondaries Summit held on September 27 in London.

The overall tone of all four conferences was balanced between enthusiasm for the growth of segments in the economy, such as clean energy, the resurgence and the return of conventional energy, the potential slowdown in fundraising (partly due to the “denominator effect”), the decline in private equity deal flow, and the strong macroeconomic headwinds. There was also discussion in both the SuperReturn Conference and Global Secondaries Summit about the growth in limited partner (LP)- and general partner (GP)-led secondaries, in particular single-asset continuation funds.
