  • How Will Financial Services Private Equity Investments Fare in the Next Recession?
    How Will Financial Services Private Equity Investments Fare in the Next Recession? Leading funds are shifting to balance-sheet-light and countercyclical investments. By Tim Cochrane, Justin Miller, Michael Cashman and Mike Smith Tim Cochrane, Justin Miller, Michael Cashman and Mike Smith are partners with Bain & Company’s Financial Services and Private Equity practices. They are based, respectively, in London, New York, Boston and London. Copyright © 2019 Bain & Company, Inc. All rights reserved. How Will Financial Services Private Equity Investments Fare in the Next Recession? At a Glance Financial services deals in private equity have grown on the back of strong returns, including a pooled multiple on invested capital of 2.2x in recent years, higher than all but healthcare and technology deals. With a recession increasingly likely during the next holding period, PE funds need to develop plans to weather any storm and potentially improve their competitive position during and after the downturn. Many leading funds are investing in balance-sheet-light assets enabled by technology and regulatory change. Diligences now should test target companies under stressful economic scenarios and lay out a detailed value-creation plan, including how to mobilize quickly after acquisition. Financial services deals by private equity funds have had a strong run over the past few years, with deal value increasing significantly in Europe and the US(see Figure 1). Returns have been strong as well. Global financial services deals realized a pooled multiple on invested capital of 2.2x from 2009 through 2015, higher than all but healthcare and technology deals (see Figure 2).

With a grand prize of $250,000 in seed stage funding, the competition is believed to be the largest winner‐take‐all business plan competition for university students. During the morning session, 16 teams from 12 universities on the West Coast presented business plans to a panel of 10 judges, comprised of venture capitalists from the DFJ Network. Six teams were selected as finalists and presented extended versions of their business plans and answered further questions from the judges in a second round of competition in the afternoon. Following the final round of judging, NeuroVigil was awarded $250,000 in seed funding. NeuroVigil is poised to revolutionize brain analysis and plans to target the sleep, transportation, and pharmaceutical industries. The company, which comprises several Nobel Laureates and leading business strategists, was founded in 2007 by Dr. Philip Low, who, as a graduate student at the Salk Institute, developed a new way to analyze brain activity using a single non‐invasive probe.

  • Looking Somewhere in the Middle
    OUR FIRM LMM GROUP CLIENTS TRANSACTIONS NEWS & INTEL CONTACT IN THIS SECTION LOOKING SOMEWHERE IN THE Executive Perspective IT Index MIDDLE News Room Quarterly Earnings March 10, 2006 Scoreboard Spotlight by: Kelly Holman Tracker VDI Accel-KKR LLC didn't set out to specialize in middle-market private equity buyouts in the high-tech sector. Its founders, an Subscribe unusual combination of dealmakers, were focused in 2000 on the bright prospects of the Internet, just as many other investors and entrepreneurs were. But that vista quickly turned as dark as night when the dot-com bubble burst, and Accel-KKR suddenly needed to make a rapid course correction. It did. Today the Menlo Park, Calif.-based firm has made a name for itself acquiring small but fast-growing technology companies. Even as top-tier buyout groups lick their chops over the possibility of doing deals involving big software corporations, Accel- KKR keeps its attention on midmarket and small tech outfits with $15 million to $150 million in annual revenue: software developers, hardware makers, Internet firm and information technology services businesses. To be sure, it's hardly the only middle-market private equity group interested in technology businesses - a number of buyout groups, large and small, have made technology their core investment focus. But Accel-KKR's board and the background it represents set it apart. Members include financial engineering icons Henry Kravis and George Roberts of Kohlberg Kravis & Roberts & Co.; KKR partner Marc Lipschultz; veteran venture capitalist and Accel managing partner Jim Breyer; and former Wells Fargo & Co. chief executive Paul Hazen.

Draper III Hollar: So Bill, here I think is the challenge. There's been a great oral history done of you at Berkeley; and then you've written your book. So there's a lot of great information about you on the record. So what I thought we would try to— Draper: That's scary. I hope I say it the same way. Hollar: Well, your version of it is on the record, that's for sure. So I wanted to cover about eight areas in the hour and a half that we have. Draper: Okay. Hollar: Which is quite a bit. But I guess that's also a way of saying—we can go into as much or as little detail as you want to. But the eight areas that I was most interested in covering are your early life and your education; your early career—and with that I mean Inland Steel and meeting Pitch Johnson, and Draper, Gaither & Anderson, that section. Draper: Good. Hollar: Then Draper & Johnson—you and Pitch really getting into it together; then, of course, Sutter Hill and that very incredible fifteen-year period. Draper: Yeah, that was a good period. Hollar: A little bit of what you call "the lost decade." Draper: Okay. Hollar: Then what I call the Draper Richards Renaissance. Draper: Good. Hollar: And kind of the second chapter of venture capital for you.
