Europe: A strategic overweight?
Europe is quietly lining up a mix of powerful, long-term tailwinds that investors can tap into. Governments are spending heavily on infrastructure — from energy transition projects to digital upgrades — and the EU’s big funding program (NGEU) is still rolling out capital across the continent. Defence budgets are rising under NATO commitments, while reforms like the EU’s Savings and Investments Union are slowly making Europe’s capital markets deeper and more accessible. On top of that, private-market “plumbing” — the rules, structures, and liquidity — is improving, making it easier to allocate capital outside of public equities.
Put together, this means the European investment opportunity isn’t just about buying listed stocks. There are multi-year, diversified ways to get paid across infrastructure, private credit, energy and data-center assets, and private equity — including secondaries. In other words, Europe is evolving into a richer, more balanced investment landscape than many global investors might assume.
