Venture Capital’s Promising Evolution: A Positive Sign of Progress

A new report from Preqin suggests that the downward trend seen in the venture capital (VC) market may be slowing, although the overall performance of VC funds in 2023 was still negative. The report indicates that VC funds were down 1 percent in the third quarter of 2023 and down 3 percent in the first nine months of the year. However, this represents an improvement compared to the 20 percent drawdown seen in 2022. The report also highlights mixed sentiment among venture capitalists about the future performance of the market, with some expressing uncertainty and cautious optimism. The decline in performance of VC funds in recent years has been attributed to factors such as rising interest rates, fear of a recession, and high valuations in the market. Despite the improvement seen in the second quarter of 2023, it is unclear whether the positive momentum will continue into 2024. Factors such as high interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and the potential for a recession continue to create uncertainty in the market.
