Corporate Partners Atif Azher and Peter Gilman, and Associates Fred de Albuquerque, Samuel Watters and Jessica O’Connell were contributing editors to the 2021 edition of “Getting The Deal Through: Market Intelligence – Private Equity.” They authored the “Global Trends” chapter, in which they provided an overview of private equity M&A in the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific regions and explored how global deal volume and value reached historic levels during the first half of 2021. They additionally analyzed the dealmaking and debt financing markets, portfolio company sales and public listings, as well as the rise in private equity fundraising across buyouts, growth equity, venture, secondaries, distressed and co-investment funds. The “United States” chapter, which was authored by Atif and Fred in a Q&A format, highlighted trends in private equity buyouts, investments and exits, significant keynote private equity deals, cross-border and multi-jurisdictional deals, the evolution of the legal, regulatory and policy landscape in the region and the fundraising market, among other topics.
