Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data Meyer, Thomas, 1959 Private equity unchained : strategy insights for the institutional investor / Thomas Meyer. pages cm Summary: Until recently, strategy played little meaningful role in the management of illiquid investments, and what many investors call strategy has been more akin to tactics or learned reflexes. Even large institutions still appear to manage their private equity allocations on such a case-by-case basis. But the environment has changed and returns are no longer assured as they once were. Private equity and other illiquid asset classes have matured, as more players seek to deploy ever larger amounts in a market where opportunities necessarily become difficult to identify and access. The few principles that institutional investors have relied on up to now have been anchored in a less competitive past. Private Equity Unchained deconstructs existing practices and provides insights into how to think strategically about illiquid asset allocations. In order to thrive in markets characterised by extreme uncertainty, investors must first accept the limitations of what is knowable. This begins by leaving behind many of those financial theories that institutions normally cling to as a safe harbour for managing risk. Once divested of such false comforts, investors will be in a position to identify their real options and take an active and strategic approach to alternative investing Provided by publisher. 1.

8 Acknowledgements Finishing a book is like returning home after having climbed a mountain. Looking at the completed script is an anti-climax and one wonders how one embarked on this journey in the first place. To a large degree this book builds on previous publications over the last ten years, so the thoughts expressed here are the result of the cooperation and discussions with the co-authors of these works: Peter Cornelius (AlpInvest Partners), Christian Diller (Montana Capital Partners), Didier Guennoc (LDS Partners) and Pierre-Yves Mathonet (ADIA). In this context I must also thank Yasuharu Hagi (MCP Group) and Kazushige Kobayashi (Capital Dynamics). Many ideas stem from the advice and conversations with other industry practitioners. I could list many people with whom I discussed the concepts explained in this book, but I at least should mention Guy Fraser-Sampson, Elias Korosis (Hermes GPE), Hal Morimoto (Astoria Consulting) and John Renkema (APG). I am extremely grateful for the support of my colleagues Philippe Defreyn (LDS Partners) and Jobst Neuss (European Investment Fund) and for the help of Tim Jenkinson (Professor of Finance, Director of the Oxford Private Equity Institute and head of the finance faculty at Saïd Business School, University of Oxford). I particularly thank Ross Butler (JRA Butler) for his critical review and his help in improving earlier versions of the manuscript. I also thank my endorsers, Colin Mayer (Peter Moores Professor of Management Studies at Saïd Business School, University of Oxford), Georges Sudarskis (Sudarskis & Partners) and Robert van Zwieten (Emerging Markets Private Equity Association). Acknowledgements would not be complete without expressing my gratitude to Peter Baker, Gemma d Arcy Hughes and Jamie Forrest at Palgrave Macmillan, without whom this book would never have seen the light of the day. Julie Rowbotham has done an outstanding job as copy editor and Francesca White as leader of the production process. I reserve the last acknowledgement to my most important supporter: once more, my heartfelt gratitude goes to Mika Kaneyuki, my wife and best friend, who is my strength and purpose in life. Luxembourg, May 2014
