Private Equity Strategies

Editorial

Friday, August 29, 2014

Welcome to the August issue of Private Equity Strategies. We hope you’re enjoying the holiday week and weekend. Summer, normally a slowdown time in the finance world has seen a brisk pace of dealflow, fundraising and M&A activity.

In this month’s issue we will highlight recent deals, along with a new update on potential fundraising tool coming from New York.

Our regular features - Regs Watch and Quick Hits round up the state of regulation and dealmaking.

Finally, we look at the departure of a private equity veteran Patrick Boyce, who is leaving for sunnier climes, and an examination of Bermuda as a new hot spot for hybrid fund structures.

We hope you enjoyed the summer, and will enjoy this issue!
