In this episode of the InsuranceAUM.com Podcast, host Stewart Foley, CFA, speaks with Toby True, Partner on the Investment Strategy and Risk Management Team at Adams Street Partners, about the complexities and evolving best practices in private market portfolio construction for insurers. Toby shares how Adams Street tailors investment strategies to align bottom-up decisions with the unique objectives, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs of insurance portfolios.
The conversation explores how illiquidity impacts portfolio design, why data and historical patterns are increasingly valuable in modeling private market exposure, and what current market conditions—such as slowed distributions and resilient fundamentals—mean for capital deployment. Toby also offers insights on secondary markets, private credit underwriting, and key traits he looks for when building investment teams. It's a timely and insightful discussion for insurance investment professionals navigating today’s private market environment.
