A New Private Equity Newsletter

Hi all, 

A real pleasure to be sharing this with you today. I'm starting a PE newsletter.
Specifically, this account/newsletter will post discussions, overviews, and insights on everything
private equity, most commonly from a micro standpoint. We’ll discuss new financing
techniques, case studies, overarching trends, and key mechanisms found in the private equity day-to-day. The posts will range from easy/intermediate reads - to advanced posts on the intricacies of the industry (eyes peeled, one’s coming soon).

Please note: this first post is a tester to receive initial feedback. It's a 101, so it's a very simple read, a topic everyone should know inside out.

I started the account/newsletter 'The Caveat Emptor' through a love of learning all things private equity, with the idea of sharing my learning with others, starting discussions, and growing a following who share the same interests. A more comprehensive overview of the Newsletter and Its name are found at the end of the first post.

As a bit of background: I’m currently a second-year analyst at an M&A firm in London, I’m buying my time prior to transitioning to a private equity firm in the next two years. My passion for private equity stems from a 6-month internship at an UMM PE firm prior to landing my M&A role, and more recently some of the PE sales I’ve been lucky enough to be on.

I’d really appreciate constructive criticism and suggestions of any PE-related topics you’d like to see written about in a blog/newsletter format. Perhaps something you once heard of that you never took the time to drill deep into. Perhaps something as simple as what are loan notes, and why are they commonly issued in private equity transactions? No suggestion is a silly suggestion.

The first newsletter will be sent out in batches. To receive this, please email: [email protected] with the title: TEST-RUN

Many thanks, and kind regards!
