  • UBS Private Equity Secondary Market Review.Pdf
    UBS Private Equity Secondary Market Review UBS Private Funds Group June—2011 UBS Private Funds Group Secondary Market Review The UBS Private Funds Group’s Secondary Advisory Practice was launched in 2004 with the mandate to provide the highest quality sell- side advice to owners of private equity portfolios. In the current installment of this series, UBS provides a comprehensive review of secondary market activity in 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 and highlights key issues and trends that will impact the secondary market in 2011. Our perspective is unique within the secondary market, based not only on our experience as a leading placement agent and secondary advisor, but also as a seller in the structuring and execution of UBS’s own $1.3 billion secondary transaction in 2003.1 To date, UBS has advised on and executed over $24 billion of secondary transactions and has established itself as a market leading advisor.2 Review of the Secondary Market—2010 Market Environment Secondary volume rebounded to record levels in 2010, totaling approximately $22 billion which represented a 132% increase as compared to 2009 levels ($9.5 billion).3 The combination of improved capital market conditions and strong levels of available capital resulted in a dramatic improvement in the pricing environment during the first quarter of 2010, while increased regulatory pressure crystallized financial institutions’ intention to sell risk assets. Following a somewhat slow start to the beginning of 2010, the year began to pick up momentum following the announcement of Bank of America’s $1.9 billion transaction and RBS’ €400 million transaction.

  • Best-In-Class Your Guide to the Winners of the PE Asia Awards 2011
    PE ASIA • march 2012 • Issue 58 Best-in-class Your guide to the winners of the PE Asia Awards 2011 As we honour 2011’s stand-out firms, transactions and advisors, one thing that’s clear is Asia’s homegrown private equity groups are by no means taking a backseat to global private equity franchises. With only a couple of exceptions – including Bain Capital’s win as ‘Firm of the year in Japan’ – nearly all of the awards for private equity fund managers went to local specialists including CITIC Private Equity Funds Management, Archer Capital and Everstone Capital, to name a few. In many cases, older, global firms were runners-up. These awards, voted on by thousands of PE Asia readers, showcase the firms that have – in the eyes of their peers – excelled and set the industry benchmark. The results of these awards also reflect some of the wider themes prevalent in the world of Asian private equity during 2011. Chinese deals, for example, were what readers had in mind when thinking about the region’s most impressive deal and exit of 2011. And those winning transactions involved a number of large global players – a reminder that even if Asia’s domestic fund managers are indeed maturing and rising in prominence, Western firms still comprise a key part of the Asian private equity landscape and are expected to continue to do so as they scour the region for outsized return opportunities. In the following pages, we’ve worked to provide some detail on why these firms, more so than others, were voted best-in-class by their peers.
