Private equity's biggest annual gathering is called SuperReturn , but its returns haven't been looking quite so super of late.

A slowdown in exits has left investors in PE funds unable to realize returns and potentially looking for alternatives.

The industry is, meanwhile, holding nearly 30,000 unsold companies worth about $3.6 trillion , according to a March report.

There has been a push toward getting retail investors involved in the space, including an exchange-traded fund launched by State Street and Apollo Global Management in March .

SuperReturn attendees agreed that huge uncertainty remained regarding the macro environment, not least with the U.S. trade issue far from resolved.

Oliver Wyman's Romeo said private equity will thrive by focusing on its bread-and-butter roots.
