what happened
Limited partners across the Gulf are increasingly choosing European private markets funds over U.S. managers, according to Asante Capital. Its director, Frank Glock, says interest in Europe has grown noticeably over the past 12 to 18 months, since the start of Donald Trump's second term.
Glock links the shift to heavy dollar exposure in investor portfolios and to geopolitical tensions that are directing capital toward Europe, a region that was long overlooked. The U.S. still serves as the main benchmark for private market allocations, but pan-European fund managers are drawing more attention as a result.
why it matters
For markets, this could mean a gradual reallocation of capital toward European assets and support for the euro if the trend persists. So far, this is an observation from one market participant, with no data on the scale of flows.
