That should all be under your control if your color management is correct. Although you didn't tell us anything to actually help you, so I can only give general suggestions. Your OS, what created that clip, and the color space of the clip would be necessary as well as your timeline settings. What you want to export to.

 

You can set all of Premiere's CM options in the new Settings tab of the Lumetri panel. So how do you have those set?

 

And what created the clip, what color space does it have?

 

If you're on a Mac, and working in Rec.709, do you have the Reference Modes available in your system? If so, the HDTV option gets you full-on correct Rec.709 in the monitor outside of Premiere. The Rec.709 option gets you a lightened Mac-only view of the file as Apple made an improper setting within their color management utility app. And uses the camera transform, 1.96, as the display transform. Weird.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
