We might just be witnessing a really fundamental change in Australia’s financial markets to the the rise of private markets.
Through superannuation investments, many Australians have indirect exposure to private assets. Private markets operate differently than public markets and are inherently less transparent.
In this episode of Inside ASIC we are all about understanding private versus public markets. Why it matters - and what’s the role of our corporate regulator when these deals are being done behind closed doors, with:
Senior Executive Leader Market Conduct Andrew Templer
Senior Executive Leader Strategic Projects Jane Eccleston
Carole Comerton-Forde - Professor of Finance at Melbourne University
