Secondaries first: rethinking private market liquidity
In EFG’s Outlook 2026 publication, private equity secondaries were highlighted as a key opportunity within private markets. In this episode, EFG CIO Moz Afzal is joined by Jake Elmhirst, Partner and Head of Private Wealth Secondaries Solutions at Coller Capital, to discuss why secondaries have become a core building block in client portfolios. They explore the current liquidity squeeze in private markets, how secondaries can offer diversification and potentially attractive risk adjusted returns, and why the growth of perpetual and semi liquid structures is changing how private wealth accesses private equity.
