The depth to benchmark private markets with confidence
A top-quartile return does not tell you how it was made
A strong fund return can hide very different realities. Was performance broad-based and repeatable — or driven by one exceptional deal? Did value come from revenue growth and margin improvement, or from leverage and multiple expansion? Were losses isolated, or does the headline return conceal a wider pattern?
CEPRES Market Intelligence lets you look beneath fund-level performance using standardized data across funds, underlying deals, cash flows, pricing and operating performance. See which investments drove returns, how comparable assets performed, where downside occurred and what actually created value.
Go deeper than the headline performance
Build the right benchmark
Create relevant peer groups across strategy, vintage, geography, industry, fund size and other characteristics. Compare managers against the market that actually matters — not an overly broad average.
Look through to the underlying deals
Move beyond fund-level performance to see which investments actually drove returns. Identify concentration, outperformers, underperformers and the deals shaping the overall result.
Analyze actual cash flows and returns
Use fund- and deal-level cash flows to analyze IRR, TVPI, DPI, PME and other performance measures with greater depth than reported headline returns alone.
See what created value
Connect investment performance with revenue, EBITDA, margins, leverage and valuation. Separate the impact of operating growth, margin improvement and multiple movement.
Put pricing and risk in context
Compare entry and exit multiples, losses, defaults, recoveries and return dispersion across relevant investments to understand what was paid — and what ultimately happened.
Build the analysis around your question
Combine structured filters with keyword search across 280+ data points to investigate specific strategies, sectors, geographies, themes and investment characteristics.
Ask the questions that matter with CEPRES AInsights II
CEPRES AInsights II brings AI directly to Market Intelligence, helping teams query complex private market data in natural language and turn trusted fund-, deal- and operating-level evidence into faster, decision-ready analysis. Instead of working through static reports, spreadsheets or fragmented files, you can ask a question, interrogate the underlying data and surface the charts, KPIs and insights most relevant to the decision at hand.
AInsights II works on top of the same verified look-through data across funds, deals, underlying assets, cash flows and operating metrics that powers CEPRES Market Intelligence. That means you can move from a broad market question to a more specific answer without losing the evidence underneath it — whether you are testing a benchmark, comparing performance, assessing risk or investigating what actually drove returns.
The result is a faster path from trusted market data to analysis your team can act on.
