"Despite a temporary, and perhaps healthy, slow down in Private Equity deals, related to the burst of the cheap-credit / light-covenants bubble, the trend in public-to-private in Corporate Europe and Corporate America is predicted to continue over the next few years. Private Equity funds can still count on an estimated $500bn of uninvested capital, which we see moving more aggressively into the mid cap segment of the market. Therefore, the competition for securing attractive assets is increasing, and investment teams are under constant pressure to identify new angles to unlock value above the reservation price of their equally determined peers. The successful investment professionals are those that can rapidly and accurately assess a firm's potential for development and value creation, and then efficiently apply the complex processes involved in turning the acquired company around".
