Curate Investments’ Post

Part 2 of my article on 'value creation' - whilst Part 1 focused on the economics of an individual deal, in this second part I look at what value creation means from the perspective of a private equity firm and an overall fund level. I hope it sheds some light on the inner workings of PE firms including the different roles involved in value creation, common internal processes and some of the practical implications for management teams working with PE. #valuecreation #privateequity

Simone Girardeau returns with part two of her series on the role of Value Creation in a private equity context, and what it means for management teams. She sets out the different models of Value Creation team, and the important role they might play pre-deal, during the hold and at exit. One of the things that differentiates us at Coppett Hill Growth Advisory is that we have worked in private equity value creation and investment roles, as operators and as consultants, meaning we can help to translate between these worlds. We aim to shed some light on the context behind certain Board dynamics, requests from your PE representative, or changes in priorities.
