Congratulations to all the winners at The Private Equity Awards 2014

April 11, 2014

Last night Benchmark International was proud to sponsor and attended the annual Private Equity Awards, hosted by RealDeals.

Now in their thirteenth year, the awards are the oldest and most respected in the industry, recognising the very best of European private equity.

The event was thoroughly enjoyed by all Benchmark International delegates who noted the high levels of optimism and confidence moving forward in a year in which many commentators predict will see significantly increased industry activity.

Following several years of low-level activity, private equity firms, with significant pressure to invest have seemingly regained confidence in the market and are currently involved in or planning a high volume of deals.

Benchmark International would like to congratulate all of last night’s winners and wish them the very best for the year ahead.

Citizens Bank’s 14th annual survey of over 400 middle market C-suite executives and private equity principals in the United States stated that a favorable economic environment is a key reason businesses and investors will seek M&A strategies in 2025. Furthermore, uncertainties from the last several years have subsided, and valuations are predicted to be stable or higher than in years past. Meanwhile, smaller mid-size companies are taking a more reserved approach, with many sellers opting to sell a piece of their business versus a full sale. In summary, surveyed decision-makers expect 2025 to see economic growth and a higher rate of M&A deals.
