The Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) landscape is going through some fundamental changes in its structure brought about by Private Equity (PE). One such is the renewed focus on long-term investments. Another trend is these PEs loosening control. Business consulting firm EY spoke about the increasing instances of non-controlling stake where PEs are content at simply influencing the target company’s operations. Credit is now better understood, so many investors are moving away from ownership models. There is now great PE-corporate collaboration than ever before.

They want to build their own organization.
