Continuing our collaboration with the Association of Asian American Investment Managers (AAAIM) on Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) representation in private markets, a new report was recently released focusing on AAPI-owned firms’ access to emerging manager programs and representation in institutional investor portfolios. Our findings indicate that despite strong performance of AAPI-owned firms, they are often not targeted through emerging manager programs.
