Gain.pro is pleased to announce the publication of the first edition of the European Private Equity Asset Handbook, a comprehensive report that provides a quantitative perspective on European private equity (PE) asset pools, which highlights growth opportunities across various segments. industry and provide valuable insights to investors and industry experts.
- According to our quantitative scorecard, financial services and technology, media and telecom emerge as the most attractive industries for private equity firms to invest in. These industries are characterized by market-leading growth rates, high profitability, and above-average procurement and construction activity. Other subsectors that stood out include professional services, technology services and biotechnology.
- From a regional perspective, France, Italy and Central and Eastern Europe are attractive investment regions. France stands out for its high profitability, Central Europe for its high growth, and Italy for its low price-to-earnings ratio. The UK and DACH region are at the bottom of the pile for most criteria investors are looking for. We have seen PE deal activity shift from the UK and DACH region to France and Italy.
- Private equity market penetration is strongest in the infrastructure, technology, medical technology and software sectors. 12-15% of large companies (>100 FTE) are PE owned. Infrastructure assets typically generate predictable long-term cash flows and are therefore suitable for private equity investment, while technology and software have some of the highest growth rates and profit margins in the industry.
