Private Markets Forum London 2026
Citywire’s private assets series returns to The Bulgari, Knightsbridge on 3 June for the Private Markets Forum London. Investment management and manager research practitioners will again have the opportunity to participate in Citywire’s trademark blend of fund due diligence and peer-to-peer networking.
As well as hearing from a number of leading asset managers, we will also be joined by Sir Craig Oliver, multi-award winning journalist and former director of politics and communications for David Cameron. Oliver will explore leadership, communications strategy and digital transformation, drawing on his unique experience in the field.
Whether your clients are already benefitting from such structures, or you simply want to learn more about the opportunities and risks involved with private assets, this Forum will be a meaningful addition to your calendar.
After attending, delegates will be able to;
- Better understand fund structures across multiple private asset classes, such as private equity, private debt, real estate and infrastructure.
- Assess the suitability of private markets collectives for client portfolios.
- Apply digital transformation and modern communication principles to their professional lives.
Delegates participating in the accredited Private Markets Forum can claim up to 3 CPD hours towards the CII / Personal Finance Society member CPD scheme.

Speaker
Sir Craig Oliver was the Director of Politics and Communications for the British Prime Minister, David Cameron for six years. He worked at the heart of No 10 Downing Street and was responsible for the Government’s strategy, messaging and campaigns. During that time Sir Craig was Director of Communications on a number of political teams, including the 2015 General Election – defying the polls and winning an unexpected overall majority.
Sir Craig’s day-to-day work inside No 10 included a radical overhaul of government communications, making them fit for the digital age. He was the Director of Communications for the campaign to keep Britain in the European Union during the Brexit Referendum. Sir Craig wrote a bestselling book about the experience – “Unleashing Demons” – which was the inspiration behind the Channel 4 drama “Brexit: The Uncivil War” depicting Sir Craig and Dominic Cummings as the main protagonists.
