Private Markets & the Outlook for European Insurance Investments
Private Markets & the Outlook for European Insurance Investments
The insurance investment landscape is in structural transition. Private markets have moved from the margins to the mainstream, but the race into alternatives is generating new pressures: governance gaps, data deficiencies, regulatory scrutiny, and fears of market crowding.
We carried out primary research with 34 senior investment professionals at leading European insurance groups - including Allianz Benelux, Aspen, AXA UK, Generali, Just Group, Phoenix, Scottish Widows, and more - conducting structured interviews and a dedicated survey in early 2026 to capture their unfiltered views on the themes shaping investment strategy this year.
The result is a report exploring six defining themes: from private credit's dominance and the rise of asset-backed finance, to the public-private allocation dilemma, regulatory transformation, AI adoption, and the growing strategic importance of treasury and capital management.
This is essential reading for anyone operating at the intersection of insurance and investment.
