Asante Market Pulse – Winter 2023

Asante would like to thank all of you who took the time to complete the Asante Winter Survey, which has resulted in Asante donating a record sum to our partners at the Asante Africa Foundation. The foundation has positively impacted over 840,000 lives in East Africa, striving to empower the region’s youth by providing education programs and scholarships to the leaders of the future.

This 2023 Asante Winter LP Survey reflects a shift in investors’ sentiment as a fall in public markets creates denominator effect, reducing investor allocations for private markets. There were a host of “fear factors” that drove LPs’ slowdown from investing in private markets in 2022.
