Private Equity in Uncertain Times: Insights from Rick Kes of RSM 3-11-25

Ja, ich meine, Scott, ich denke, ich nehme es zurĂŒck zu den Grundlagen und kontrolliere das Kontrollable. Und ich denke, unsere Theorie seit langem ist, dass du dein Bestes tust, um super effizient zu werden. Bringe dein GeschĂ€ft zu einem A-QualitĂ€t-Asset und lass den GerĂ€usch den GerĂ€usch sein.

Aber wenn du der beste Asset in der Klasse bist, dann ist ein bisschen dieser GerĂ€usch nicht so wichtig fĂŒr dich, wie es fĂŒr die Fringe-Spieler in deiner Asset-Klasse wichtig ist. Ich wĂŒnsche meinen Klienten, sich zu bewegen, die Technologie zu nutzen, um effizienter zu werden.

Private Equity Trends: Exits, Capital Calls, and Market Uncertainty with Rick Kes of RSM 3-4-25

Yeah, Scott, I think in some sense, the overall market conditions that we're seeing, I would think, people are getting a little bit more, I guess, understanding of the interest rate environment and understanding of the fact that there's a lot of things that may or may not be you know, beneficial to the lowering of the interest rates.

So I think some people are almost putting that aside and saying, okay, well, you know, we can't do much about this, right? And so we need to do something. And, you know, perhaps to your point, you know, it's selling within the same fund family. That could be one idea.

And to your point, the other idea is just moving on and figuring out what exits can happen and what activity could happen, even absent the interest rate environment. Because obviously, there's some noise. suggesting inflation still maybe not yet to where the Fed would like it to be.

So that could be a little bit of a headwind against lowering interest rates. And then, of course, you know, I think there was some data from a manufacturing perspective around manufacturing purchasing up about, you know,
