Amy Bensted, Head of Data Products:

"We expect the whole of the alternative assets industry to grow in the next five years, but the industry will look very different to what it is now. With the market seeing capital concentration and consolidation, fund managers and investors will have to diversify away from North America and Europe to stand out and find opportunity. This is why emerging markets will shine and why we've already seen growing interest in these regions."
