Frederik Vinten
Title of thesis: Essays on Private Equity.
- Examining explanations of the latter going private and the impact from private equity buyout fund ownership on portfolio firm performance.
This thesis studies aspects of the latter buyout activity using data from Europe and Denmark. Firstly, it is studied how the operational performance of Danish buyout firms are affected by private equity fund ownership. Furthermore, it is tested using European data whether increased corporate governance regulation or stock market fluctuations has affected a firm’s likelihood of going private, i.e. becoming de-listed from a European stock exchange due to a going private transaction.
