Hamilton Lane benchmarks will update on a quarterly frequency. Quarter-end figures will be updated within 100 days after each quarter-end, and year-end figures will be updated within 140 days after each year-end.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Alts Data with the Excel Add-in?

Alts data is not yet supported in the Excel Add-in. We’re working on an update that will enable this functionality in a future release. In the meantime, you can export alts data from YCharts as a CSV file for use in Excel.
