Dear Executive,
Private Equity is Thriving.

And the beginning of 2007 shows an increasing pace. With all this money in the market, how is it still possible to achieve true outperformance ?
Back in the old days, it used to be that only a small number savvy investors would engage themselves in private equity, naturally making it a very inefficient market. Today however, the market is becoming more and more efficient with new records in terms of dollars raised is being established year after year. Does this mean that the time has come where one has to be happy with only slight outperformance against the public markets? luckily not. It just means that there is one has to rethink their portfolios theories and adapt to the private equity market as it exists today.
