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).

Ten Things You Need to Know Before Engaging in Accredited Crowdfunding
BOSTON CONNECTICUT NEW JERSEY NEW YORK WASHINGTON, DC www.daypitney.com Ten Things You Need to Know Before Engaging in Accredited Crowdfunding By Eliza Sporn Fromberg and Norbert Mehl It has been over a year since the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permitted securities issuers to market their capital raises using general solicitation and general advertising while still qualifying for an exemption from public registration. During this time, hundreds of online crowdfunding platforms have launched – seemingly overnight – offering investment opportunities in private companies. For a company seeking to raise capital, these “accredited crowdfunding”1 platforms offer the tantalizing possibility of raising funds with the click of a button. As this new industry grows and develops, it’s conceivable certain accredited crowdfunding platforms may become as ubiquitous as traditional broker-dealers. But in this nascent industry, how should a company seeking to raise capital for a new or existing venture go about selecting the most suitable crowdfunding solution? The following are 10 things you should know before engaging in accredited crowdfunding. 1. Who is eligible to raise funds through accredited crowdfunding? In the United States, securities offerings made pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 are not deemed “public” offerings under the securities laws and are therefore exempt from public registration with the SEC. With one exception, any company can make this type of “private” offering of its securities – and raise an unlimited amount of money from accredited investors – using general solicitation and general advertising, either on its own or using an intermediary such as an accredited crowdfunding platform.

Private Equity-Style Investing in Public Markets
Private Equity-Style Investing in Public Markets I had the pleasure of speaking with Adrian Warner, chief investment officer of Sydney-based Avenir Capital a few years ago. Adrian shared his insights into public equity investing with a private equity mindset. In doing so, Adrian drew upon more than two decades of experience as a private equity investor in the U.S. and Australia. The following transcript has been edited for space and clarity. John Mihaljevic, MOI Global: Adrian Warner has a background in private equity and was highly successful in that field prior to starting Sydney, Australia-based Avenir Capital, a value-oriented investment firm in public markets. Adrian, tell us about your path and what motivated you to make the switch from private to public equity. Adrian Warner, Avenir Capital: I’ve spent close to 20 years in the private equity industry, both in Australia and in the US. I started out in the early 1990s after spending some years at Bain & Co in consulting. I finished my education in the 1980s, when the efficient market hypothesis was at its peak. I did a First-Class Honors degree in finance, having it drilled into me very firmly that public markets were efficient, and there was no way to effectively beat them over the long term. With that backdrop, I sought otherwise to apply investing in markets I felt were less efficient. Private equity in the early 1990s was such a place. It was still a fairly small and under-the-radar industry, and there were great opportunities there to hunt down businesses available for much less than I felt they were worth.
