Very Detailed - Nice Read

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on December 21, 2020

Deeper dive than many books in the space. Great read if you're looking for some of the more technical details (legal structures, contract clauses, tax issues, etc.) that are applicable in more complicated situations.

A Fantastic Introduction To the PE World for the Novice, Reference For the Expert

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 29, 2019

Verified Purchase

My current role at my firm sits in the PE investment side. However, I am neither a novice nor an expert. Having 20 years experience on Wall Street but only 5 in PE, it is hard to find a new position in PE without fully talking the talk and understanding every aspect of the business. This book is everything I hoped it would be - logically organized and thorough, yet approachable. The perfect balance of depth and breadth.

I find myself using it now to prepare for interviews and refreshing my knowledge of PE practices in my day to day job. Having worked in PE for 5 years, I still did not have a full handle on the process and sometimes it takes a reference guide to walk you through the steps and the motivations behind each of the players. I've had quite a few light bulb moments where I thought - wow that makes perfect sense yet I did not realize at the moment. This book has been perfect for filling in the gaps of knowledge that I had. Thank you Ms. Zeisberger!

Good book, easy to follow

Just moved to this sector and needed to upskill quickly. This book was recommended for me as a good starting point, and I have read many books on PA after and... go back only to this one. It is well written with good examples so even if you are no PE expert you can follow. I like it!

Masterful and clear PE

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 11, 2018

This is a GREAT book on the PE world. It has everything I would have expected to see. It is crystal clear. It is beautifully laid out. The supporting website and articles and its companion book of case studies are terrific - easy to read, very interesting and thought provoking.

As someone who moved from industry into the world of PE and started a first time fund I recognise everything here.
It is up to date, clear and interesting and I wish very much that it had been available when I started out.

Thank you Claudia, Michael and Bowen - a great job!

Balanced, comprehensive - A great book about Private Equity

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 13, 2017

Verified Purchase

A very balanced, comprehensive book - theory and practical - about everything important to know and beyond in private equity. The style is vivid, extremely sophisticated and people contributing to this book are legends, the Who is Who in Private Equity. As to my opinion there is no better read in the market about private equity in its entirety. 'Private Equity in Action' complements this issue very well.

Well presented and well written

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 1, 2019

Verified Purchase

The material is well presented, covers a wide spectrum of issues and is a good read for someone with a bit of PE experience. It may not be very useful for people with no background in PE investments.

Really good analysis of the industry

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 4, 2017

Verified Purchase

Read it first quickly then deeply with the companion book “private equity in action”, you are like attending a great course and become versatile in many aspects of private equity. Well organized great content, references are really useful, although some of the hyperlinks are broken (editor, please fix!). Post grad or middle level industry people will enjoy.
