Words: David Bodamer, Editorial Director

Private markets are entering a new phase of growth, one defined not only by innovation, but by policy, access and infrastructure.

In a recent episode of the Wealth Management Invest podcast hosted by David Bodamer and published by WealthManagement.com, Anya Coverman, President and CEO of the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives (IPA), discussed the regulatory and structural forces shaping the next chapter of private markets in the wealth channel.

The future of private markets in the wealth channel will not be defined by any single regulatory change or product innovation, but by the collective effort to build thoughtful infrastructure, durable rules and informed participation.

For the full discussion, listen to the original Wealth Management Invest episode hosted by David Bodamer on WealthManagement.com featuring Anya Coverman.
