Crisil Private Markets Forum 2026: Rewriting the Private Markets Operational Playbook

Industry leaders gathered at the Private Markets Forum 2026 hosted by Crisil Integral IQ in New York for an engaging panel discussion on "Rewriting the Private Markets Operational Playbook".

Two key themes dominated the conversation: Scale and Transparency
 

With market volatility opening new deal opportunities and LP expectations on the rise, the private markets operating model is undergoing rapid transformation.

Our panelists discussed the following

• Balancing rising valuation expectations with quarterly portfolio reporting cycles
• Leveraging GenAI for meaningful impact across finance operations
• Evaluating whether legacy infrastructure can handle multi-strategy growth complexity
• Navigating evolving global regulations reshaping transparency standards

While core operations continue to scale effectively, complex valuations and cross-strategy coordination demand more flexible operating models, robust data infrastructure, and tailored approaches.
