Hi, Would anyone have a recommendation on a good book on PE/LBO in order to cover not only modeling but also deal structuring, DD etc... ? I am about to start a new job with a PE coming from IB. Thxs ! Dulac

I'm also interested! Which book would you recommend to cover both modeling and deal structuring?
BTW, thanks for your question Dulacandstars
I don't have any personal recommendations, but here are a few on LBOs from one business school's reading list: ▪ "Big Deal: 2000 and Beyond" - Bruce Wasserstein ▪ "Merchants of Debt: KKR and the Mortgaging of American Business" - George Anders ▪ "Takeovers II: A Strategist's Manual for Business Combinations in the 1990s" - Ferrara, Brown, Hall, Presser
The complete list of technical and non-technical publications they recommend can be found here - http://bit.ly/6LzEHD
Thanks, I will check this out ! Dulac
