GP equity deals still a key gear driving the private markets engine

"As with the portfolio companies you are investing in, as a GP you don’t want to shut your eyes and take the highest price. Rather, decide who is the best long-term partner for the firm. How will they be perceived by your wider LP base? Think about whether or not they will act in an aligned and supportive way when deciding how to guide the strategy, hiring new staff and so on.” 

Magnus Goodlad, our Head of Transactions, caught up with Private Equity Wire to share his thoughts on the rapidly developing market for GP stake sales.
