At the crossroad of academia and industry, we are a quantitative team with a focus on private asset pricing and market dynamics.

We create model-driven products and solutions with practical applications for investors in need of better data so they can decide how to deploy capital in private equity and infrastructure markets while managing risk and benchmarking performance.

We are not a repository of contributed information provided by a limited sample of market participants.

Instead, we collect data directly from private firms and markets and use advanced financial modelling, statistics and machine learning to produce scientific results fit to make investment decisions.

We do so transparently, using models that are fully documented.

In 2024, private asset investing represents trillions of dollars of allocations and requires representative and robust market data to measure value and risk.

But private markets themselves generate little raw data, and most of it is not public. Quantitative research, including machine learning techniques, is the way for private market investors to access the information they need.

The absence of high frequency transaction data in private markets means that almost every reported value is based on a model.

The actual choice for investors in private assets is not between taking a quantitative approach or not.

The choice they face is between using good data and quantitative methods or bad ones. The difference is a matter of fiduciary duty.

Private markets provide investors with information through transaction prices that are always noisy and biased. Using advanced, scientific models and the best data available, quantitative research can de-noise and correct biases in the data to provide investors with access to robust and representative market information. 

For our clients, the data is fully supported, customisable and currently the only usable source of information on private market risk.

With our technology and unique access to private market information, we produce data that serves as a starting point in private investing.

1. Asset Valuation: we offer robust, representative and customisable data to anchor private asset valuations to market conditions.

2. Market Dynamics: we offer a suite of private market indices and customisable benchmarks to track market levels and risk.
