The current market turmoil is having a noticeable affect on private equity. Not only is fundraising at its slowest for more than three years*, but there is also a slow down in asset disposals with consequences for valuations and performance.

You are invited to a morning seminar dedicated to examining the issues pertinent to private equity in the current financial climate. We are hosting a prominent mix of industry speakers who will each discuss a current topic including valuations, performance drivers and fund structures.

The individual presentations will be followed by a panel session for your Q&A and there will be an opportunity to debate and network over a buffet lunch.
