Last year, EMPEA launched an LP Education Webcast Series to inform our global network of institutional investors about emerging markets private capital opportunities and to tackle the practical issues of investing in the asset class. Over 750 LPs tuned into the first six modules that comprised Part I of the series – now, available exclusively for EMPEA Members. 

The LP Education Webcast Series is presented with the generous underwriting support of EMPEA Leadership Circle Members, Siguler Guff and The Abraaj Group.
