Here's a look back at the events that reshaped the industry.

Quiz: Did you follow private markets in 2022?
(Jenna O'Malley/PitchBook News)
2022 brought drama galore to the private investment landscape.

The fallout from the war in Ukraine seemed to touch everything–even a Premier League buyout and a European startup competition. Disgraced founders were by turns arrested, sentenced and redeemed. Private equity expanded into blockchain funds and startup loans.

Our quiz has the highlights, the lowlights and everything in between.

Private debt outlook 2023: Risk and opportunity co-exist
(kudla/Shutterstock)
While private debt deal flow and fundraising pace have slowed from last year's record highs, the industry still ended this year on solid footing. But 2023, which is expected to be a tumultuous year, will present the industry with a series of challenges.

Anticipating greater uncertainty in the economy and more rate hikes from the Federal Reserve, investors still view private debt as attractive. However, they will want more downside protections for their private credit investments in this environment.
