    OHIO PUBLIC EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT SYSTEM 277 EAST TOWN STREET, COLUMBUS, OH 43215-4642 1-800-222-PERS (7377) www.opers.org MEMORANDUM DATE: July 3, 2007 TO: OPERS Retirement Board Members Chris DeRose - Executive Director CC: Jennifer Hom, Director – Investments Greg Uebele, Senior Investment Officer – External Management FROM: Paul Rodgers, Portfolio Manager – Private Equity RE: Private Equity Update Purpose This memo provides a general update for the private equity activities. General Ohio-Midwest Discretionary Mandate On June 14, Credit Suisse held another “Breakfast Lecture Series” event in Dayton. The event attracted an audience of fifty people with the interaction between panelists and audience members once again vibrant. Those in attendance learned about the Ohio-Midwest initiative and its early results, the decision by OPERS to further support the program with another $50 million of capital, as well as the opportunities and attractiveness of investing in Ohio. One of the benefits of these meetings, beyond education and networking, is to stimulate deal flow opportunities. Credit Suisse’s Mel Carter reported shortly after the event that an entrepreneur in attendance approached one of the Ohio-Midwest Fund’s general partners and initiated a dialogue about the potential sale or recapitalization of his business. Such a meeting most likely would not have occurred had the Dayton event not taken place. Private Equity Procedures Staff is in the process of revising its General Partner Selection and Administration procedures to reflect the changes resulting from the shift in the advisory services model as well as improvements made with regard to workflow. Staff is coordinating this activity with Hamilton Lane, Investment Accounting, Audit, Legal, and Fund Management.

  • Songs of Profit, Song of Loss: Private Equity Investing in New York City
    Songs of Profit, Song of Loss: Private Equity Investing in New York City Daniel Souleles Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Columbia University 2015 © 2015 Daniel Souleles All rights reserved ABSTRACT Songs of Profit, Songs of Loss: Private Equity Investing in New York City Daniel Souleles This dissertation is an ethnographic description of the process by which private equity investors buy, manage, and sell companies for profit, all while private equity, as an industry, manages around $3.5 trillion of capital. Drawing from data gathered from the summer of 2012 through fall of 2014, this dissertation offers an account of investing that diverges from other ethnographic cases in that it relies on ongoing conversations about value and time that investors have, which seek to justify the decisions investors make. Once I explain how investors find and create value as well as the opportune time to invest, I explain how this negotiation fits into a stereotyped, formalized deal process, which acts like a total social fact in rearranging people and wealth in social life. I ultimately suggest that this approach to explaining the action of private equity investors has a broader use in rendering other financial capitalists ethnographically comparable to private equity investors, as well as in rendering other societal distributions of wealth and poverty comparable to that which exists in the contemporary United States.

Come meglio spiegato in questo nostro articolo di oggi, la cosa interessante è che Consob ha ritenuto di ascoltare il mercato e quindi di ampliare la rosa dei potenziali investitori in minibond, prevedendo tre nuove categorie di investitori diverse dagli investitori professionali e dagli investitori professionali su richiesta. Tanto da permettere anche agli investitori retail di sottoscrivere le campagne, a patto che questo avvenga nell’ambito di un servizio di gestione patrimoniale o consulenza d’investimento. Si tratta di una novità eclatante per il mercato e che si inserisce nel trend che vede molti asset manager proporre alla propria clientela private investimenti in private asset.
