Some 87 per cent of alternative fund managers have predicted that inflows from pension funds will increase over the next 18 months, according to research from Ocorian.
The fund administrator, which surveyed alternative fund managers across the UK, US and Europe, also found that 36 per cent predict a dramatic increase. A further 9 per cent expect levels to continue, and just 3 per cent predict a slight decrease.
Additionally, other institutional investors and sophisticated retail investors expect to contribute further, Ocorian found.
72 per cent anticipate inflows into alternatives will be increasingly accrued from private banks, with 33 per cent expecting these to increase dramatically.
Some 61 per cent predict inflows from corporates to increase over the next 18 months, with approximately 34 per cent expecting dramatic increases.
In reference to alternative asset classes, fund managers across private equity, real estate, infrastructure and private debt expect to benefit from increased inflows, synchronised with the belief that levels of attractive investment opportunities are rising.
The majority of asset managers (93 per cent) envisage levels of attractive investment opportunities to increase in the next three years, with 17 per cent predicting a dramatic increase.
Only 5 per cent think levels will remain consistent, and just 2 per cent expect levels to slightly fall.
