| Ernst & Young report: Private Equity Capital Confidence Baromter | |
| Ernst & Young would like to alert you to the launch of our new global report, the 2nd Private Equity Capital Confidence Barometer (CCB), which was recently released. This third edition of the PE Global Capital Confidence Barometer (CCB), Ernst & Young's semi-annual survey of senior PE executives from around the world, asked a hundred PE respondents about their sentiments regarding the economy, fund-raising, value creation and deal-making. KEY FINDINGS: A majority of PE respondents (77%) and corporations (78%) say that the global economy shows no signs of improving. 75% of PE firms expect fund-raising to be the same or better, in spite of the economic environment. A majority of PE firms believe that the availability of credit is stable. Half (49%) plan to pursue acquisitions for their portfolio companies. 47% of PE firms plan to increase jobs in portfolio companies. PE firms (43%) expect increased exit activity in the next year. To learn more, please follow this link for copy of the report. We look forward to hearing your views. Kind regards, Ernst & Young Transaction Advisory Services team transactions@ca.ey.com http://www.ey.com/Publication/vwLUAssets/Global-Capital-Confidence-Barometer/$FI |
