Canoe Compass welcomes senior professionals from across the private markets community; wealth managers, family offices, institutional investors, pensions, endowments, OCIOs, fund of funds, and capital allocators. If you allocate to alternatives and want to do it better, this day was built for you.
You belong in the room if your firm:
Allocates to private equity, private credit, real assets, hedge funds, or other alternative investments and is managing a growing volume of fund relationships and the documents that come with them.
Has an operations, finance, or investment team that needs greater transparency in private markets data to improve reporting, reduce risk, and make better investment decisions.
Is looking to minimise operational risk and build the resilience to support a scaling alternatives program.
Wants to grow in opening new opportunities, increasing allocations, or expanding into new strategies without the operational drag that typically comes with it.
