When reviewing private assets, investors and managers may face limited data and inaccurate risk assessments. In public markets, investors have access to performance that is marked-to-market, daily, and as of the most recent date whereas private assets are marked-to-value, infrequent, and out of date.
Using Venn’s desmoothing, interpolation, and extrapolation features, clients can mark private asset returns to the market, increase frequency to daily, and bring them up to date. Viewing private assets through a more public lens can take the complexity out of private asset analysis, allowing users to conduct familiar workflows with ease and efficiency

Private Asset Lab cash flow modeling tools can help investors manage a variety of risks associated with private asset portfolios including funding risk or the risk of defaulting on capital calls. Functionality will include the ability to project asset allocation between private and public portfolios, and illustrate how a more liquid public portfolio may be used for funding.
Cash flow modeling is dependent on assumptions of uniform fund behaviors according to fund characteristics, and historical data availability. The future cash flow timing and needs of specific investments will differ from the model results, at times significantly.
