Italian pension funds are increasing their focus on domestic private markets as part of a broader strategy to diversify portfolios and seek higher returns amid global market uncertainty. This trend reflects growing confidence in local investment opportunities, including private equity, private credit and infrastructure. The shift is part of a wider reassessment of assets by pension schemes aiming to balance risk and generate long-term performance. This move also supports Italy’s economic ecosystem by directing institutional capital toward homegrown growth. https://www.ipe.com/news/italian-pension-funds-double-down-on-domestic-private-markets/10134375.article
