Private Equity Operational Excellence

Examining how private equity firms can drive value creation in portfolio companies through operational expertise.

Value creation has rapidly risen up the agenda for private equity firms in recent months, as they seek to grow their portfolio companies amid a sluggish fundraising and exit environment. In this special report, we explore how operating partners are working more closely with their deal team counterparts to realise value over longer hold periods, and examine how operating partners are working with their portco management teams to ensure they have effective succession planning and talent management strategies – such as employee ownership schemes – in place in order to remain competitive.
