Private Capital Outlook Pulse Survey – Fall 2020

For private equity and venture capital fund managers, 2020 has been a challenging year but not without its opportunities. In order to better understand how the industry is responding to the pandemic and resulting recession, BDO surveyed 200 U.S. fund managers at PE and VC firms on their strategic priorities, economic and market outlooks, and what they are doing to prepare for an uncertain future. In this survey, BDO cover: Private capital's economic outlook for 2021, emerging investment strategies to promote deal flow, top challenges and competitors for deals, insights on asset pricing, and how private capital is preparing for a potential second wave of COVID-19.
