Celebrating 20 years of eFront solutions

July 29, 2021 – Today, BlackRock announces the availability of deal-level benchmark analysis within eFront Insight. Powered by data sourced directly from GPs and validated via the eFront Insight platform, eFront Insight now provides a detailed analysis of deal characteristics and performance combined with deal activity across all sectors and geographies at the underlying asset level.

A deal-level based geographical performance analysis provides more clarity for investors. It defines a market as a collection of individual private capital-financed deals incorporated in each geography, irrespective of the geographical focus of funds that hold these portfolio assets.

The Global Private Equity Performance Report published today represents a geographical application of the eFront Insight deal-level benchmarking service. In the coming weeks, this service will be launched as a quarterly data pack available for eFront Insight clients, who will benefit in the future from the benchmark’s integration into eFront Insight’s advanced analytical platform.

This new capability provides eFront Insight subscribers access to deal information and asset evolution across 40,000 private equity and more than 34,000 real estate investments.  It enables clients to benchmark the performance of their direct and passive portfolio holdings as well as to forecast and plan the value creation and exit expectations of their asset-level holdings through trend analysis.

This data complements the in-depth information already available within eFront Insight Research, which combines reliable alternative investment benchmarks and performance metrics in sophisticated and flexible reports leveraging fund-level data. eFront Insight’s data and advanced analytics allow investors to spend less time on data collection, cleansing and crunching, and more time on analysis, insight-generation and decision-making.
