2020 Global Limited Partners Survey

The 16th annual edition of EMPEA’s Global Limited Partners Survey features the views of 109 limited partners (LPs) on the current conditions and outlook for private capital in emerging markets (EM). This study aims to shed light on how LP investment plans are evolving and what factors are affecting LP decision-making.

Focus areas for this year’s survey include the COVID-19 crisis, policies around climate change and other environmental factors, co-investment and direct investment plans, and venture capital (VC) and technology.

EMPEA represents the leading global investors in EM. I look forward to working alongside to drive much-needed capital for financing entrepreneurs and businesses worldwide.
