Context In the summer of 2018, BDC partnered with the Canadian Venture Capital & Private Equity Association (CVCA) to organize three industry roundtables to assess unmet needs for private equity (PE) investments among small and medium-sized businesses and how BDC might help to address these needs. The meetings in Calgary, Toronto and Montreal were held in the context of demographic and industry trends that may be leading to a shortage of PE for small to medium-sized businesses. Over the last two decades, the Canadian private equity (PE) market for growth capital and buyouts has grown appreciably in terms of number of deals, amounts invested and the number of active Canadian and foreign funds (See Graph 1). Returns from this asset class have been very positive,1 leading to a steady increase in fund size and number of funds raised.

  • The Pe & M&A Quarterly
    JUNE 2020 JUNE 2020 | ISSUE 4 THE PE & M&A QUARTERLY Quarterly News, Trends and Developments Off the Record “The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected all sectors in India and across the globe, except a few. Though initially it was expected that the pandemic would end in a few months, it appears that it will continue for a longer period. Many PE firms and strategic investors have paused or deferred or slowed down their investment plans for the next 6 to 8 months. However, there are exceptions in case of a few. The deal making activity in India appears uncertain for the remainder of this year. On the M&A side, domestic deals are being evaluated. It is getting harder to close transactions in view of mismatch in expectations of the seller and buyer. The present situation has forced them to realign their objectives and expectations. In signed deals, material adverse change clauses are being evaluated, and in new deals it is being made as exhaustive as possible to ensure possible exit in case of change in environment. The overall structure of doing deals is going through a change and the focus is shifting to value creation and sustainability. There is a reasonable possibility that towards the end of the year, if we return to some sense of normalcy, there will be a significant increase in M&A and PE activity.” Satish Kishanchandani, Managing Partner FEATURED JUDGEMENT Banyan Tree Growth Capital vs Axiom Cordages Limited and Ors. 1 ISSUE 4 JUNE 2020 LEGAL UPDATES NON-FATF MEMBERS ALLOWED TO REGISTER AS CATEGORY I-FPI SEBI Updates April 07, 2020: The Securities and Exchange Board of India (“SEBI”) has relaxed the rules with respect to SNAPSHOT offshore funds seeking to get registered under the • For all relevant COVID-19 relaxations in “properly regulated” Foreign Portfolio Investor (“FPI”) compliances permitted by SEBI, visit our category.

    THE LANDSCAPE FOR IMPACT INVESTING IN SOUTH ASIA Understanding the current status, trends, opportunities, and challenges in BANGLADESH, INDIA, MYANMAR, NEPAL, PAKISTAN, and SRI LANKA WITH SUPPORT FROM Maps within the report are based on UN maps. Source: UN Cartographic Section FOREWORD DEAR READERS, The Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN) is pleased to publish The Landscape for Impact Investing in South Asia, in partnership with Dalberg Global Development Advisors and with support from UK aid from the UK Government through the Department for International Development’s Impact Programme. The first regional market landscape report developed by the GIIN, this report provides a comprehensive overview of the impact investing industry in South Asia, focusing on the countries of Bangladesh, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Through this research, and additional upcoming regional landscaping studies, the GIIN aims to deepen our understanding of investor opportunities at a country- specific level. The impact investing industry is relatively young, and so the degree of market development varies from one country to the next. This variation is present in South Asia, one of the least developed yet most populous regions in the world—a region with significant potential for impact investing. If we are to accelerate impact investing in South Asia, an understanding of the current state of the market is critical in identifying opportunities for and challenges to deploying impact capital and growing the industry. Through our partnership with Dalberg, a firm with a strong track record in global development and investment research, we were able to conduct a detailed analysis of capital flows and the current state of impact investing in South Asia.
