Finding PE-backed companies in specific niches was one of our most-read articles last month, and it's no surprise. For investment bankers and M&A professionals, uncovering PE-backed companies or private equities active in your area of interest can be a strategic ace up your sleeve. 👉 Find strategic acquisitions: Target PE owned companies nearing the crucial 5-7 year investment mark in your niche. 👉 Source new deals: Discover companies ready for sale and position yourself as the go-to advisor. 👉 Identify potential buyers: Pinpoint private equities for whom your client would be the ideal addition. And, while it might go without saying, leveraging Inven makes this easier than ever before. Discover both traditional and AI-driven strategies to uncover these gems: https://lnkd.in/dKWPWuG8

In a new report, Why #PE Industry Consolidation is a Double-Edged Sword, PitchBook unpacks how consolidation in PE is accelerating alongside the possible impacts of this trend. Caleb Edmundson, editor-in-chief of ExitUp, examines the proliferation in M&A deals among PE firms and draws a comparison to rising deal activity among executive search firms. These transactions not only enable managers to capitalize on new economies of scale by acquiring smaller, often more specialized managers, but they also grant access to fresh talent, while extending geographical reach. The dominance of a dwindling number of funds in fundraising efforts is an additional driver behind consolidation. In the last several decades the PE space has matured significantly with business and capital becoming more concentrated among a smaller number of global, multi-strategy asset managers overseeing mega-funds with commitments exceeding $5 billion. ExitUp is Hunt Scanlon Ventures' investment blog designed for professionals across the human capital M&A sector.

A trend that I continue to see in the market. Too often, a liquidity event for founders is followed by a talent exodus. As a generation of Asset Management firms move towards retirement, how do firms retain talent while navigating generational change and succession planning? There are many options available, and finding the right strategic partner and deal structure can help smooth the transition to the next generation of leaders. Kudos to Partners Capital for their thoughtful approach to this common challenge. https://lnkd.in/eB-aeFTT Gary Goldstein Alexis DuFresne
