After 10 Long Quarters, We are Back in Positive Territory for Buyouts
PE Hub recently profiled Andrea Auerbach, Global Head of Private Investments, in a Q&A that dives deep into her outlook for 2025. In the year ahead, Auerbach expects an uptick in authentic exit activity as well as a continuation of some of the trends we saw in 2024, namely capital flowing towards more value-oriented, industrial strategies.
„I don’t think institutional investors have adjusted their expectations one iota. Investors have high expectations for managers given the cost and illiquidity of private investing strategies, and capital shows up for managers capable of delivering on those expectations,“ said Auerbach.
