Relevant Factors

Private equity (PE) stands out significantly in the world as one of the main development tools of the capital market in emerging economies and alternative sources of finance for companies. Particularly, the increase in fund value and continuous returns are objects of intense study in Brazil. The paper aims to find determinants to Brazilian private equity returns, regarding three relevant variables funds characteristics and GDP to a macroeconomic view. A sample of 1,112 PE funds registered at the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) was used and analyzed by three main variables: period of establishment, equity size, and exclusivity as possible determinants of funds’ performance using multiple regression model and fourth variable GDP is applied as a descriptive variable. The results indicate that older funds had a return premium of 1.5% monthly over young funds, smaller funds had a return premium of 1.4% over larger funds, and exclusivity does not influence the funds’ performance. Thus, the paper provides a basis for the relevant factors that an investor should verify in Brazil’s private equity fund before allocating the resources.

Findings After spending the first two or three years post Dodd-Frank raising awareness of these issues, the SEC has begun to impose large fines over expense-allocation conflicts and disclosure issues. Practical implications It is imperative for PE Fund managers to retain counsel to review their fund offering documents, expense allocation practices, and compliance programs to ensure consistency with the SEC’s recent decisions on these issues. Originality/value Practical guidance from experienced financial services lawyers.

This paper suggests ways to develop healthy industrial relations at foreign-invested enterprises after M&A by studying Oriental Brewery Co., Ltd (“OBC”) case. OBC has the unique feature of being a foreign private-equity-fund (KKRKohlberg Kravis Roberts) invested company with dual unions. It is the only consumer product company in Korea that has regained the number one position in 2011 after 15 years of a continuous drop from the once dominant position with up to 70% of market share in the early 1990s. We have identified the contributing factors of such success from the perspective of union-management relationship before and after the M&A.

The theoretical model of Private Equity Scorecard Approach (PESA™), introduced an article in the Spring 2018 issue of The Journal of Private Equity (“Private Equity Scorecard Approach: Quality versus Myth”), develops a methodology to value a company based on its quantitative and qualitative indicators. As pointed out in the article, however, any model would only exist in theoretical boundaries, unless applied in practice. In this article, the author discusses the specific characteristics of the internal processes and organizational structure of a private equity fund that uses the PESA™ methodology in its modus operandi. The author provides practical examples of the fund’s approach to investments as well as the necessary information environment in which the fund operates.

The article is an analysis of Private Equity investment deal values across 24 industries by select Private Equity funds from 2007–2016. The purpose of the research is to identify any patterns of movement of deal values. The study established the growth rate of deal values and observed the performance of each Private Equity fund throughout the 10-year period. The purpose of the study is to determine the significance of Private Equity investment for the promotion, growth, and development of industries. In the case of heavy industries such as Energy, Engineering and Construction and Manufacturing, Private Equity investment becomes inevitable, at least as a supplement to government funding. Due to rising disposable income and purchasing power of people, industries such as BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) Retail, and other services such as Travel, Transport, and Telecom are also attracting considerable Private Equity. The role of Private Equity as an indispensable tool for industrialization is emerging and becoming dynamic. Furthermore, the government’s go-ahead attitude towards reforms is further boosting Private Equity investment’s opportunities and impact on India’s economic development.
