  • How digital ecosystems are transforming private markets fund operations

    How digital ecosystems are transforming private markets fund operations
    2026/06/15
    In this episode of our Alternative Insight podcast, Oliver Sinclair Director of Technology - Markets at Aztec Group, is joined by Pavandeep Wakem, Head of Strategic Operations at Investec, and Tom Brewer, Partner at Alpha FMC, to explore how digital ecosystems are transforming operating models across private markets.

    The conversation examines what it takes - both technically and organiseationally - to build private markets systems that are integrated, scalable and genuinely useful in practice. A central theme throughout is that the greatest opportunity lies not in replacing people, but in augmenting human expertise with better data, smarter workflows and more connected technology. Highlights from the conversation:
    • Digital ecosystems are about more than technology alone - they depend on the interplay between data systems, workflows, governance and people across the operating model
    • Interconnectivity unlocks success - without strong integrations, common data standards and effective orchestration, firms risk creating friction rather than efficiency
    • Data foundations are the real enabler of AI - structured, accessible and well-governed data is the bedrock if firms want AI tools to deliver scalable, cost-effective value
    • Augmentation is the real prize - AI tools free skilled professionals from repetitive tasks so they can focus on analysis, judgement and client relationships, which are the building blocks of better business
    • Adoption is as much a human challenge as a technical one - success depends on trust, behaviour change, end-user needs and close alignment between business and technology teams.

  • Beyond growth: Can private credit withstand the test?

    Beyond growth: Can private credit withstand the test?
    2026/06/11
    What will the Bank of England’s private credit stress test tell us?

    In this episode of the Alternative Insight, Andrew Tully and former Bank of England executive director Paul Sharma, unpack how the test is likely to work, where risks may emerge under pressure, and why manager behaviour in a downturn could matter just as much as headline losses.

    During a wide-ranging discussion three of the topics covered were:




    • How the stress test goes beyond portfolio resilience and is designed to test behaviour too, to make sure managers can keep credit flowing into the economy no matter what the market conditions

    • How the test is structured to help managers better understand second adn third wave effects of a market shock and respond accordingly

    • Why the winners in a volatile market are likely to be those managers who maintain underwriting discipline, workout capability and sound judgement.

    Together they discuss:


    • How evolving regulation can be translated into practical guardrails
    • What an effective operating model for AI looks like
    • How firms can address security, compliance and cost concerns
    • Why strong data foundations and human judgement remain critical to AI adoption
    • What differentiates the firms that have successfully embedded AI.
