Private equity holdings have increased in portfolio weight for LPs after the declines in public markets, according to a Wall Street Journalreport. Even though portfolios may now appear to be overweight private investments, LPs are mindful of not missing out on potentially attractive entry points, according to the report.

A significant share of institutional investors see relative value in private equity amid the market dislocation, according to a survey cited in the article. Investors' ability to position accordingly is being managed in the context of liquidity demands and an uncertain outlook.
