Industry trends

Increased focus on ESG factors
‍

Investors are placing a stronger emphasis on ESG issues, with many PE firms now integrating ESG criteria into their investment analysis and decision-making processes. This shift is driven by regulatory requirements and a growing recognition that sustainable practices can enhance long-term value.

Growing importance of technology and digitization

There is a significant push towards digitization across all sectors, and private equity is no exception. PE firms invest heavily in technology to drive efficiency, improve data analytics, and enhance due diligence. This trend is particularly evident in fintech, healthcare, and consumer digital services.

Sector specialization
‍

As the market becomes more competitive, many private equity firms opt for a sector-specific approach to leverage deep expertise and achieve better returns. This specialization enables investors to navigate complex sectors more effectively and add value through strategic guidance.

Continued rise of co-investments
‍

To spread risk and pool expertise, there is an increasing trend towards co-investments, where multiple investors share a stake in a deal. This approach not only mitigates individual investor risk but also enhances the capital available for larger, transformative investments.

Shift towards longer hold periods
‍

The traditional private equity model of flipping investments in three to five years is evolving. More firms are holding onto investments longer to allow more time for achieving transformation and value creation, particularly in industries undergoing rapid change.

Increased use of private credit
‍

There's a noticeable shift towards using private credit as an alternative to traditional bank lending. Private equity firms are leveraging private credit to provide bespoke financing solutions to portfolio companies, particularly in mid-market deals.
