📅 IPEV Board statement: applying the 2025 Guidelines in today’s market environment

As we approach the end of Q2 2026, private markets continue to navigate heightened uncertainty—from geopolitical developments to shifts in growth expectations, the impact of AI, and increased scrutiny in private credit. In this context, robust and disciplined fair value measurement has never been more important. It is central not only to compliance, but also to how investors, boards, and stakeholders interpret risk, report performance, and make capital allocation decisions.

The updated IPEV Valuation Guidelines (December 2025) provide a timely and essential framework—reinforcing the need for consistency, transparency, and sound judgement, particularly where market data is limited or rapidly evolving.

Confidence in valuations underpins trust in the asset class. Applying the Guidelines remains key to delivering reliable and supportable measures of fair value.
