Transaction and Monitoring Fees: On the Rebound?

This joint investigation by Dechert and Preqin examines the effect of the 2008 market and credit crash on the market range of transaction and monitoring fees. The survey is based on data collected through a voluntary survey of private equity buyout firms conducted by Preqin, one of the leading providers of data and intelligence on alternative assets, combined with data collected through a random sample of publicly reported private equity acquisitions. While this study analyzes data over a six-year period from 2005 through 2010, it also isolates and focuses on trends prevailing since the recovery from the 2008 market and credit crash.
