Patria Trust eyes recovery with private equity uptick

LONDON - Patria Private Equity Trust PLC (PPET) is positioned to capitalize on an expected rise in private equity deals as interest rates decline in developed markets. The trust, which invests in a selection of top-performing private equity managers, anticipates this increase in deal activity to potentially boost its returns following a recent period of leaner performance.

In the past two years, private equity returns have seen a downturn after a robust period of deal-making. However, the current trend of falling interest rates has been associated with a surge in transactions, which may signal a return to stronger returns for entities like PPET.

The trust has recently reported positive results, and the heightened levels of private equity activity in 2025 are likely to contribute to a reduction in PPET’s significant discount. This optimism is further bolstered by advancements in addressing cost-disclosure issues, which have affected all investment trusts but have had a particularly notable impact on funds-of-funds, such as PPET.

These insights are based on a press release statement and reflect the current analysis of the situation. PPET’s future performance will depend on various market factors, including the continuation of the current trend in deal activity and further improvements in the regulatory environment surrounding investment transparency.
