PE Fundraising Post-COVID

Hi guys,

What do you think will be the fundraising environment once the virus clears?

Asset prices will be at historic lows is my guess. Now, those with a lot of dry powder will stand to benefit but what about new funds?

Will there appetite for LPs to put in money in new funds? Or will they remain cautious and go for less risky investments?
