Ghost Stories #66: The exit edge - is private equity still outpacing IPOs?
The latest C-suite Barometer study by Forvis Mazars paints a positive picture for private equity and alternative investments, with 26% of global executives planning to use these channels to raise funds in the year ahead. South Africa is no different to the global trend here, as evidenced by the extent of exits and capital raising transactions in private vs. public markets.
But why is this the case? And will private equity continue to outpace IPOs as the exit mechanism for choice?
To unpack these topics, I was joined by Wiehann Olivier and Johan Marais of Forvis Mazars in South Africa.
Listen to this podcast if: you want to understand the structural advantages that private equity has over public markets, particularly for mid-sized companies.
