CEPRES was proud to exhibit at ILPA Members Conference 2026 in Chicago, joining the institutional LP community at one of the leading private markets gatherings dedicated to limited partners, asset owners, consultants and investment decision-makers.
Across the conference, the CEPRES team met with private markets professionals to discuss how deeper data, analytics and AI can help LPs strengthen manager selection, due diligence, portfolio monitoring and investment committee workflows.
At ILPA Members Conference 2026, CEPRES showcased how institutional investors can move beyond static GP reporting and fragmented analysis with connected private markets intelligence across Due Diligence, Portfolio Monitoring, Market Intelligence and AInsights II, the next generation of our Investment Consulting AI for private markets.
Helping LPs Move From GP Reporting to Decision-Ready Insight
Institutional private markets teams are under increasing pressure to make faster, better-supported allocation decisions.
LPs need to validate manager track records, assess risk, benchmark performance, monitor exposures and understand what is really driving value creation across funds, deals and underlying companies.
Yet too much private markets analysis still depends on inconsistent reporting, manual processes and disconnected datasets.
CEPRES helps LPs close that gap.
Powered by one of the industry’s most comprehensive private markets data networks — spanning 7,200+ LPs and GPs, 36,000+ funds, 220,000+ deals and $65T+ in private market value — CEPRES gives institutional investors the data, analytics and AI capabilities to interrogate managers, portfolios, markets and deals with greater confidence.
Strengthening Due Diligence and Manager Selection
A key focus at ILPA Members Conference 2026 was how LPs can use deeper private markets data to improve due diligence and manager selection.
With CEPRES, investment teams can move beyond headline fund performance and evaluate managers through a more evidence-based lens, including track record validation, performance benchmarking, deal attribution, value creation analysis and peer comparison.
This helps LPs answer critical questions before making allocation decisions:
Is this manager’s track record genuinely differentiated?
How does performance compare against relevant peers, vintages, strategies and sectors?
What has driven value creation across comparable funds and deals?
Are returns supported by operational improvement, leverage, multiple expansion or market beta?
Where could hidden risk sit beneath headline performance?
By combining verified private markets data with powerful analytics, CEPRES helps LPs build a clearer, more defensible view of manager performance before investment committee review.
Bringing Greater Transparency to Portfolio Monitoring
CEPRES also showcased how LPs can gain a more connected view of their private markets portfolios.
As private markets portfolios become larger and more complex, institutional investors need greater transparency across fund performance, deal exposure, company-level KPIs, valuation movement, leverage, sector concentration and emerging risk.
CEPRES helps LPs monitor private markets portfolios with greater clarity, moving from periodic reporting to more dynamic portfolio intelligence.
From fund-level oversight to deal and company-level insight, CEPRES enables investment teams to identify what is changing, compare performance across managers and understand the drivers behind portfolio outcomes.
AInsights II: AI-Powered Investment Intelligence for LPs
ILPA Members Conference 2026 also provided an opportunity to showcase how AI can support private markets investment workflows when paired with institutional-grade data.
AInsights II, the next generation of CEPRES Investment Consulting AI for private markets, helps investment teams interrogate data, analyse dashboards, generate charts and surface insights faster across complex private markets information.
For LPs, this means faster access to the insights that matter most:
Which managers are outperforming relevant benchmarks
How portfolio exposures are changing over time
Where risk may be building across sectors, vintages or strategies
How current market conditions compare against historical private markets data
Which investment assumptions require deeper analysis before committee review
By combining AI-powered analysis with CEPRES data and analytics, AInsights II helps LP teams move faster from information overload to decision-ready investment intelligence.
Supporting LPs Across the Investment Lifecycle
Throughout the conference, CEPRES demonstrated how its platform supports institutional investors across the private markets lifecycle, including:
Due Diligence — validate GP track records, benchmark manager performance and assess allocation opportunities with greater confidence
Portfolio Monitoring — monitor fund, deal and company-level exposures with connected portfolio intelligence
Market Intelligence — analyse valuations, leverage, returns, deal comps and value creation across private markets
AInsights II — ask better questions of private markets data and accelerate insight generation with Investment Consulting AI
Together, these capabilities help LPs replace fragmented analysis with connected, data-driven intelligence across manager research, portfolio oversight and investment decision-making.
