PrivateAlpha Rankings - Publishing October 2026

Most performance comparisons don't adjust for the market they were made in.

A fund that returned 18% in a rising market may have generated less real value than one that returned 14% in a flat one. IRR tells you what happened — alpha tells you whether the manager caused it.

PEI and SIPA have scored 2,000+ buyout funds and 400+ infrastructure funds across 2013–24 vintages to separate genuine alpha from market beta.

Register for the webinar on 28 October, 1-2pm GMT and you'll get access to the full ranking.
