2008 Investment Benchmarks Reports: U.S. Buyouts and Other Private Equity

BOPE Cover This definitive report contains statistics for over 625 buyout and mezzanine partnerships formed between 1976 and 2005 and includes:

  • Aggregate performance statistics provided by vintage year, by composite portfolio and by time horizons analyzed by stage, fund size and sequence.
  • A comprehensive analysis of correlation statistics representing $US447 billion in capitalisation
  • More than 260 tables, charts and graphs to complement the analysis

The U.S. Buyouts and Other Private Equity Report contains five chapters and four appendices.

  • Chapter I: Introduction & Executive Summary summarizes key results of the report
  • Chapter II: User’s Guide & Methodology provides a guide to using the report and discusses report methodology in detail
  • Chapter III: Vintage Year Analysis provides statistics by “vintage year” or cohort group
  • Chapter IV: Composite Analysis provides analysis of the performance of groups of funds formed over a period of years rather than being limited to a single vintage year. This allows investors to compare performance of their portfolios with performance of a composite cohort group of funds formed over the same time period
  • Chapter V: Asset Class Comparison & Correlation Analysis provides analysis of correlation statistics and performance information key to performing asset allocation and portfolio optimization modelling. It also discusses problems in applying traditional optimization techniques to private equity
  • Appendices A through D includes IRR calculations, a glossary of terms, US private equity statistics, and Thomson Financial's data collection processes and policies
