Nearly half (49%) of our 200 middle market private equity fund managers surveyed say they’re placing more scrutiny on paths to exit during consideration of a potential target.

As part of that calculus, 58% of fund managers say they’re now evaluating SPACs and IPOs as avenues for exits. For more on fund managers’ post-acquisition pain points and strategies, download the full report and read the Exit Strategies section.
