Dated: March 2009

Author(s): mergermarket

Bowne is pleased to present the full year 2008 edition of North American Private Equity in Review. This comprehensive report highlights the latest trends within the North American private equity market, covers activity across various industry sectors, and provides analysis of buyout and exit trends for the full year 2008.

Key findings in the Review include:

  • Details of the very dramatic decline in private equity M&A activity
  • Private equity firms are moving toward the Life Science and Healthcare sector even as they scale back their overall activity
  • The Industrials sector carried some of the largest secondary buy outs of the year
  • Healthcare companies contributed some of the year’s most significant exits
  • Having proven solid investments in the past, it appears that Private Equity will continue to seek safe haven in Healthcare and Industrials while the rest of the financial crisis plays out
