Methodology

Every flow is traced to a public filing — SEC 13F & Form D, Korea DART, Australia APRA PHD, US public-pension disclosures and sovereign-wealth filings. ‘Cross-border’ = an Asian/Gulf-domiciled allocator with a Western private-market counterparty. Figures are tracked flows, not a complete market estimate. Not investment advice.
