According to research firm Preqin, private equity firms are currently holding a record $818 billion in dry powder. As pressure builds to deploy this capital, GPs and LPs alike face a litany of challenges which only serves to underscore the highly complex and competitive nature of the PE industry as it stands today.
Beyond identifying and gaining access to the best investment opportunities, often within increasingly compressed timeframes, a significant shift of negotiating power from the LPs to the GPs has become clearly evident. Given this dynamic how can the various players best leverage and align interests for the optimal outcomes to be realized?
Institutional Investor’s 2017 Private Equity Summit will explore the interaction and interdependency of the various constituents of the private equity community. Utilizing a private, closed-door format the Summit will provide qualified LPs and GPs with the opportunity to engage and interact with industry peers in order to share their idea regarding opportunities, concerns and trends in order to build out a network of like-minded thought leaders.
Please take a few minutes to review the preliminary program for a complete list of speakers and program topics.
