Under the hammer the truth about private equity auctions
Private equity auctions have been a recurring theme in the deals market of the past 12 months. Once the preserve of the top end of the market, the £3100m-plus deals, they have become an increasingly prevalent feature of lower value transactions, down to £320m-turnover companies and lower. I choose my words carefully. Auctions are certainly more prevalent. They are definitely not more popular, at least, not among the private equity houses, which are usually the parties doing most of the bidding.
