CEPRES was the first organization to “look through” private market funds to underlying deal and asset performance on an individual basis. Our partnership will provide PE stakeholders with the best and most trusted insights available, detailing both “what happened” and “why it happened,” so they have the data, tools, context and insights they need to make investments that continue to outperform.
The latest update to the platform, Portfolio Diagnostics, lets private equity firms compare their deals against sector-specific benchmarks in one integrated view
Learn MoreThe last five years have been the best in the history of the private equity industry, but the same macroeconomic tailwinds that helped drive growth during this time also obscured the fact that many firms failed to achieve the margin goals they initially set out to achieve. As the industry moves into a new economic cycle, firms cannot rely on multiple expansion to deliver the returns investors demand. Those that have strong deal theses and plans for achieving value will emerge as the winners.
Deal data—truly credible, granular deal data—will change the way the private equity industry works.
Bain and CEPRES recently collaborated on important research into how funds fared during the last downturn, including how various factors affected deal outcomes, how timing before, during and after the crisis affects returns, and which sectors and subsectors held up well (or fared poorly).
Moving forward, Bain and CEPRES will expand their joint research efforts and also develop ground-breaking products that will provide the private equity industry with powerful new capabilities to improve investment performance.
