Fund managers prioritize new deals, deprioritize add-ons.

To win bids amid the intense competition for deals in today’s M&A market, private equity fund managers are speeding up their deal timelines. At the same time, they are encountering growing risks: More than half (53%) say risk exposure uncovered during the due diligence period is their top challenge to getting deals done.

But that isn’t deterring deals. More fund managers are directing capital to new deals than they were last fall, and fewer say they will pursue add-on acquisitions than they did a year ago.
