Executive Summary

In 2015, Business Products & Services (B2B) and Consumer Products & Services (B2C) received over half of U.S. investment with B2C outpacing B2B by over $20 billion. Financial Services and Information Technology finished the year in third and fourth places, respectively. In Q4, investment in four industries fell (Business Products & Services, Consumer Products & Services, Information Technology, and Healthcare), while investment in Financial Services increased.

Business Products & Services (B2B) fell for the second consecutive quarter to $31 billion in investment and ended the year with less investment in 2015 than in 2014. The deal count also fell from 338 in Q3 to 290 in Q4. Consumer Products & Services (B2C) suffered the most significant decrease, falling by $61 billion from last quarter’s extraordinary peak. Despite this quarterly drop in investment, B2C still closed the year with over $40 billion more investment than in 2014. Consumer spending is shifting, with younger generations valuing an online shopping experience that requires B2C investment in technology.

The Financial Services industry was a bright spot in Q4 with an increase of $17 billion. However, the number of deals dropped from 79 in Q3 to 72 in Q4 indicating that private equity investment in the financial services space is focusing on larger investments in fewer companies.

Information Technology (IT) and Healthcare both saw decreases in investment in Q4. IT experienced a slight decrease from $23 billion in Q3 to $21 billion in Q4. The number of IT deals held at 133. The Healthcare sector fell by $7 billion to $15 billion. No Healthcare deals surpassed the $1 billion mark.

Finally, private equity investment in Materials & Resources and Energy leveled in Q4. Materials & Resources investment held at $5 billion and investments remain small in comparison to other industries. Investment volume in Energy, still suffering from volatility in the energy markets, was stuck at $8 billion while the number of private equity investments shrank to 41 in Q4. After an extremely strong first three quarters, private equity fundraising in energy in Q4 sank to $240 million, yet 2015 closed with record energy fundraising levels. 4
