As of March 31, 2022. Coverage by geography and fund size is representative of the universe of investment programs (where a program is defined as a group of funds managed by the same manager which pursue a similar investment strategy, leverage, and/or investor pooling) on which Aksia has conducted due diligence (IDD, ODD, or Insight Report) and is not representative of the asset class as a whole.
Each investment program is uniquely counted in its primary asset class (e.g., real estate credit funds are included in the private credit asset class coverage figures only).
