Fund managers identify performance improvement as a top post-M&A challenge in a high-valuation environment.

In a highly competitive deal market, private equity fund managers are laying out more capital — 34% are paying higher multiples to win deals, putting pressure on their ability to achieve the kinds of returns their LPs want to see. In our latest survey, fund managers identify their post-M&A challenges, with improving performance, reducing costs and enhancing revenue taking the No. 1 spot.

To generate value, they’re deploying more strategic combinations of value creation tactics while contending with the growing issue of not having the adequate number of people and processes available immediately post-acquisition.
