Ardian’s Post

Ardian’s Michael Bane shares his perspective with Private Equity International on how the investor relations role in private equity is evolving and becoming increasingly important amid the current fundraising environment, shifting LP dynamics, and the emergence of new data and technology. “IR professionals increasingly need to be subject matter experts.

Everyone is recording everything these days... It does amaze me how much additional data, as well as increased sophistication of investment software is out there. The evolution of investment market data since I started as a junior consultant in 2010 has been staggering. It's hard to truly summarise and encapsulate this journey in a brief presentation. The main consistent truth is I always appreciate being able to adapt and learn with my clients/the industry on what helps improve stock picking and portfolio construction! #equityresearch #asx #equities #financialservices #visiblealpha #australia #marketdata

Very insightful observations that apply to all industries. Thanks David Metcalfe for sharing how technology changes and data explosion in the past 10 years is greatly changing how we analyse and get relevant insights to make informed decisions in a timely manner. Well done 💡

Which 🌍 regions in Europe do the largest PE investors invest in? We crunched the data: 1. UK&I stands out as the primary destination for investments followed by DACH and France 2. The largest 5-10 investors invest quite broadly across regions, but as you go down the list regional specializations start to emerge 3. There is a home tilt in investments. For example, EQT's largest investment region is Nordics, Ardian's and PAI Partners is France, while Allianz's is DACH. #investors #regions #privatemarkets
