unquote” would like to invite you to their second annual Central and Eastern European congress. Following on from the success of our inaugural event last year this one day single stream event, held in English, will focus on core issues influencing the private equity market.
We will be looking at successful competitive strategies and investment potential in the region, including new EU members, Balkans countries, Turkey, Russia and Ukraine. Today Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) offers converging market fundamentals that are nearing – or, are already in line with – EU norms, but at the same time offers emerging market potential, with GDP growth rates roughly twice those of the EU. There are now signs that CEE has elements of a mature private equity market. LP access to top funds, long a problem in more mature markets, has begun to plague CEE, with secondaries increasing in popularity as a method of addressing this. Perhaps more telling, a small number of GP spinouts have emerged, reminiscent of the UK market at the turn of the century. These new teams, combined with global GPs setting up shop in the region, have exerted pressure on indigenous players to keep their professionals satisfied – or risk losing them to alluring new upstarts.
The highly topical conference programme is tailored to provide a unique gathering for networking between international and regional key players of the CEE Private Equity industry.
Conference highlights include:
- An overview of the private equity industry in CEE
- CEE Leverage market: Assessing the effects of the global credit crunch
- The renaissance of mezzanine finance in the region
- Competition in CEE: The challenges of new players
- Spin outs
- New Markets: Russia, Ukraine and Turkey
- Accessing top funds
- Regulatory focus
- Venture Capital: Back on the scene?
