2nd Annual Financing Leveraged Buyouts Conference

From liquidity to credit: where next?

The leverage buyout market is seeing increased convergence and a transformation from a liquidity-driven to a credit-driven market. There are concerns about when the market is about to reach it’s top and whether the industry is capable of absorbing new players.

This annual IFR event is ideally placed for investors, sponsors and underwriters to discuss the following issues:

  1. Is there a correction looming in the private equity market?
  2. How do hedge funds see themselves evolving in the market?
  3. What different debt structures are available?
  4. What is the future of the mezzanine market in Europe?
  5. What are the latest trends in private equity fundraising
  6. What are the latest developments in dividend recaps?
  7. How are investors responding to a worsening macro-economic context?
  8. What is the impact of worsening interest rates?

...and many more
