Venture Has Had Better Risk-Adjusted Returns

Since 1984, venture funds have exhibited comparable risk to some public and private equity investments, while potentially offering better returns.

Scatter chart of annual return versus standard deviation, 1984-2015: venture capital sits highest, near 25% annual return at about 21% standard deviation, above buyout funds, public equities, REITs, bonds, Treasury bills, commodities, and inflation, and well above the dashed risk-return trend line.

Source: Morgan Stanley (2020), "Public to Private Equity in the United States: A Long-Term Look". Past performance does not ensure future results and expected risk, returns, or other projections may not reflect future performance. All asset classes correspond to the period 1984-2015, except for venture capital funds, which reflect the period 1984-2013, representing the most recent data available at the time of the study publication.
