In their latest edition of the Go4Venture Monthly European TMT Bulletin the authors report that 2012 finished on a high, with total investment up 26% compared to 2011, both in value and by number of transactions. December, typically a quieter month, was well ahead of December 2011 by something like 50%. This suggests an acceleration of the pace of investment in European technology venture as noted since August 2012. By contrast, the M&A market continued to slide down. Source Private Equity – Swiss News New HBM Pharma/Biotech M&A Report This is the latest HBM Pharma/Biotech M&A Report covering transactions in North America and Europe from 2005 to 2012. Due to the lack of "mega deals", overall transaction volume in 2012 was down from the previous years, but the number of M&A deals remained high with a record number of private transactions. In this report, HBM Partners AG covers in detail the trade sales of the 10 private equity-backed pharma companies sold in 2012. And, for the first time, we also provide an analysis of premiums paid in public takeovers. Last, but not least, return estimates for VC investors (where available) are summarized.

Over the course of 2012 the company completed two portfolio secondary sales, designed to accelerate this process; in August the company agreed to sell 17 buyout funds at an aggregate discount of 4.95%, raising €162.4m (which will be received in installments over time) and in December, signed a separate agreement to sell 19 tail-end venture funds with a value of approximately €10m. We understand the discount on the venture portfolio sale was slightly wider. In total, over the course of 2012, secondary sales have decreased the company's NAV by around -3.5%.

    Annual Report and Accounts 2017 HVPE Annual Report and Accounts 2017 US Building Long-term Wealth by Investing in Private Companies Why Private Markets? Globally, the opportunity set in private companies greatly exceeds that available in the listed markets. The private equity industry has grown steadily in recent years but is still viewed by many investors as an alternative asset class. Historically, private equity has delivered strong returns, outperforming listed equity over the long-term1. Why HVPE? HarbourVest Global Private Equity (“HVPE”) is a London listed, FTSE 250 private equity investment company with assets of nearly $1.5bn. HVPE is managed by HarbourVest, an independent global private markets investment specialist with 35 years of experience2. In the five years ending 31 January 2017, HVPE has achieved a return on opening net assets of 61.7%, implying a compound annual growth rate of 10.1% in US dollar terms (equivalent to 15.2% in GBP). Why Now? A growing number of mainstream investment managers are beginning to focus on the opportunities available in private companies. Meanwhile, established specialist funds such as HVPE have been delivering strong returns for many years while the shares have been trading at a discount to the value of their assets. 1 The median US private equity fund returned 13.9% annually over the 20 years to 30 September 2016, compared to 7.9% for the S&P 500 on a total return basis.
