Private Equity: Making the most of your advisers
Abstract
As money continues to pour into the Private Equity asset class, investment managers are looking for ways to extract greater value from their portfolio companies. In this article, we review some implications for the use of advisers (who will need to bring a broader range of skills to the transaction) and outline how PIP can help.
The solution lies in focusing advisers on adding real value, by bringing a broader set of skills to the transaction that incorporate three key elements:
- Get the commercial due diligence team focused on the key strategic issues (early) in order to validate the investment thesis and give greater certainty around the projected cash flows.
- Take a structured look at the operational improvement opportunities that could quickly deliver additional dollars to the bottom line.
- Leverage execution skills to ensure that the benefits of operational improvement initiatives are delivered rapidly.
