| dc.description.abstract | Through the use of publicly available information and data I have investigated the performance of the European Private Equity Industry versus that of the Stoxx 600 stock index in order to create investment alternatives that are generally considered in the investment decision making of market participants that consider the opportunities in Private Equity investment. Performance of private equity funds, as disclosed on the Thomson Reuters Eikon Platform via information shared by Cambridge Associates, have demonstrated continuous outperformance versus that of stock market indices that follow the biggest European companies’ prices. I have gone on to further discriminate the various categories within the Private Equity space and considered only Venture Capital funds and Buyout funds. Buyout funds produced far superior results to the equity markets. However, with regards to the Venture Capital funds, performance was not straight forward, with periods where they lagged behind other benchmarks (including the stock market indices). | pt_PT |
