If you are in private equity, or you are planning to join it after your finance degree, you should know this.
Deal value in America alone is expected to grow by 25% in 2021. And the year closed at around 3000 deals and USD 600 bn worth of buyouts worldwide. Assets hope to grow at a CAGR of 15-18% globally over the next 5 years.
Private equity and VC investors need more PE professional talent to increase their deal counts, buy better and exit bigger. See the promise?
Private equity is big, but being a successful professional also means being thorough and much smarter today.
