What Preqin is
Preqin provides financial data and information for the alternative assets industry, supporting due diligence, performance benchmarking, market research, and investment opportunity identification. Preqin Pro combines private capital and hedge fund datasets with search and analytics tools intended to support decisions throughout the investment lifecycle. Searches can use keywords, location, activity, and other criteria across tens of millions of lines of financial data. Interactive visual analytics cover private-markets history, current conditions, future outlook, and peer positioning. Asset-class coverage includes private equity, venture capital, private credit, hedge funds, real estate, infrastructure, natural resources, and secondaries. Preqin Pro also offers access to a curated network of a quarter of a million alternative-assets professionals. Enterprise Data Solutions offer Feeds APIs for bulk structured datasets and Operational APIs for on-demand targeted access; data is also available through Snowflake Marketplace and AWS Data Exchange. Pricing is on request, and there is no free plan, though a trial is available. Trial accounts cannot integrate Preqin data into a customer system; sample data is available through Snowflake and AWS.
