This edition offers a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape of private equity (PE), emphasising a dramatic shift from reliance on financial engineering toward achieving returns through operational excellence and value creation. A key theme is the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is seen as a new industrial revolution enabling efficiency, margin expansion, and enhanced due diligence, though human expertise remains critical. The sources highlight that leadership, talent, and culture are now seen as measurable indicators of deal success, with a focus on strategic succession planning, utilizing interim executives, and carefully balancing senior and mid-level operators. Finally, the texts discuss current market dynamics, including challenging fundraising environments, low distribution rates, and a growing trend of PE investing in public-to-private transactions, defence companies, and key sectors like professional services and technology.
