However, while these funds offer the flexibility needed to access the growth potential of private markets, there is also a need to navigate the balance between achieving higher returns and managing risks effectively.

Private Markets: Uncovered speaks to Tim Horne, Head of UK Institutional Defined Contribution at Schroders Capital, on the complexities of LTAF, and how trustees seeking to capitalise on private market opportunities can take the next step.

Tune in to the latest episode of Private Markets: Uncovered.
