State of the
Private Equity Industry
April 10, 2018, Zurich
2017
was a year to celebrate in
Private Equity: countless
successful exits and strong
fundraising put GPs in a
comfortable position. But
working in Private Equity is
never easy. This year, new
investments often come at a
high price due to
competition. There is also
growing uncertainty about
how long the steady global
economic growth of the past
few years will continue; a
correction is expected.
For
the second time since 2016,
INSEAD alumni and guests
have the opportunity to gain
insight and an outlook on
the Private Equity industry
from INSEAD alumnus
Rolf-Magnus Weddigen and
Moritz Vielhauer from Bain
& Co.’s private equity
practice. Their presentation
is followed by a panel
discussion with
leading PE
practitioners,
networking and an apéro riche.
