Session #1 - Essential vs. Non-Essential Industries

The global economy is now an inferno. In the U.S., we went from highest employment to highest unemployment in a matter of weeks.  This suggests strong headwinds ahead, both at home and globally, and in a consumer-driven economy the trajectory is significant uncertainties.
 
A significant number of PE firms are on pause for new deals and many have cancelled deals that are already been announced.  They are in triage mode, running through the numbers and determining the future outlook for each portfolio company.

Questions -
  • What are private equity top priority areas?
  • What are strategies to manage and prioritize short-term vs. long-term liquidity needs?
  • Where possible is private equity accessing Government relief and assistance?  
  • How are you modelling portfolio businesses and Covid19, including sensitivity and scenario analysis?
    • Balancing cost cuts and positioning the business to benefit from future growth (RIF, Capital Expenditures, etc.) 
    • Opportunities to restructure operations and improve performance going into the future.
