Private Equity: the next 10 years

ndetails

As a long-time contributor to RealDeals magazine, Humatica was asked to write a piece on the future of private equity – a rare opportunity to reflect on our 15 year’s experience helping leading funds and portfolio company management teams to shift behavior and grow value.

The last 20 years have been great, with 5x growth of private market funding. Feared disruptions from the 2000 tech collapse and 2009 GFC didn’t materialized. Never the less, what got funds to this point, won’t sustain them in the future. Value drivers are shifting.

This InFocus features Humatica’s observations on changes in private equity markets, and their impact on success in the future.
