APRESENTAÇÃO
BENEFÍCIOS
The total value (equity and debt) of the firms acquired by private equity funds is estimated to have achieved 3.6 trillion dollars between 1970 and 2007. While the majority of these transactions (involving 2.7 trillion dollars) have occurred between 2001 and 2007 and have included companies of all sizes, sectors and locations, in Portugal the industry is still at an underdeveloped stage. However, the recent crisis in Portugal, imposes severe funding constraints for the typical Portuguese, family owned, small and medium enterprises. Recent developments on state-owned venture capital funds and the emergence of new private equity firms will very likely encourage the expansion of the Private Equity industry in Portugal.
Although private equity has changed the corporate and financial landscape all over the world, its model and structure is not widely understood. This scenario is even more dramatic in Portugal where the industry is giving its first steps. Participants will learn about the tools they need to understand the private equity industry from the way it is structured until how actual economics conditions may shape the industry in the years to come. Participants will also learn about the economics and incentives that drive private equity, and acquire a comprehensive framework for assessing investment opportunities.
