About this session
As private markets take their place in defined contribution (DC) plans, success depends on thoughtful integration and design. In this session, Daniel Oldroyd of J.P.

Key themes include:
-
A measured approach to evaluating private investments in DC plans
-
How private markets complement public market allocations
-
Common concerns and how private strategies can align with participant needs
-
Considerations for inclusion within target date funds and other plan structures
You’ll leave with practical insights on how to evaluate, position, and integrate private investments to meet the evolving needs of retirement portfolios.
