PE perspectives from Berlin

The Unquote team talks about the topics at the forefront of GPs’
and LPs’ minds at SuperReturn in Berlin and what this means for
the private equity industry in 2023 and beyond: ranging from
value creation, fundraising and private markets consolidation, to
Kim Kardashian’s foray into the venture capital world.


Hosted by Harriet Matthews, Unquote’s Min Ho and Rachel Lewis
digest the key takeaways from this year’s gathering of private
equity practitioners in the German capital.


While much uncertainty remains around valuations and fundraising
perspectives, the private equity industry is looking for ways to
keep deploying and putting investors’ capital to good use.


With multiple arbitrage expectations less buoyant, GPs are also
looking for ways to create value in their portfolios, be it via
organic growth initiatives or bolt-ons.


We ask what all of this will mean for the second half of 2023 and
beyond, bringing together the insights gleaned from conversations
with market practitioners on the ground in Berlin and beyond.
