The challenging dynamics of the M&A market over the last year, from tightening credit conditions, financial sponsors pulling back on exits in portfolio investments, and difficult public markets have all led to a renewed focus on a key pool of assets: Privately-Held Companies (“Nonbacked”). As we’ll see throughout this article, this critical asset class of Nonbacked companies are continuing to grow in terms of volume and increasingly making up a significant portion of the overall M&A market.

Since Private Equity is such a hot topic, I'm excited to start sharing some learnings I've gathered after working with a number of PE companies like KKR, Thoma Bravo, Apax, Chertoff, and Carlyle Group. I'll be delving into how to navigate the IT landscape before, during, and after a financial transaction. Stay tuned for more insights! I'm going to call this series Private EquITy Insights. What do you think? Would love to hear the topics that people may have questions on to drive content in these articles.
