Das Umfeld an den Finanzmärkten ist günstig für Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A): In den USA ist zuletzt Bewegung in den Markt für Fusionen und Übernahmen gekommen, wie einige größere Transaktionen zeigen. Doch auch für M&A-Transaktionen in Deutschland werden die Aussichten nach einer längeren Periode der Stagnation wieder positiver eingeschätzt. Strategische Käufer und Finanzinvestoren verfügen derzeit über Milliardensummen, die angelegt werden wollen. Bei Unternehmen ist dadurch die Bereitschaft gewachsen, Übernahmen zu planen und sich von Randbereichen zu trennen. Bei den Beteiligungsgesellschaften sind vor dem Hintergrund verbesserter Finanzierungsbedingungen die großen Leveraged-Buyout-Transaktionen wieder zurückgekehrt. Zugleich steigt der Druck auf Private-Equity-Unternehmen, länger gehaltene Beteiligungen zu veräußern. Im internationalen Übernahmemarkt stehen Länder mit hohem Entwicklungspotenzial wie China, Indien und Brasilien weiterhin ganz oben auf der Liste. Doch auch das Interesse an deutschen Unternehmen steigt, wenn auch die Zeit für Milliardenübernahmen in Deutschland wohl noch auf sich warten lässt. Der vorliegende Konferenzband enthält überarbeitete und aktualisierte Vorträge der M&A- und Private-Equity-Konferenz 2013 an der Frankfurt School of Finance & Management. Zudem werden die besten Master-Thesen der letzten beiden Jahrgänge präsentiert.

Financial innovation, new laws and regulations, and the financial meltdown of 2007–2008 are just a few of the forces that have shaped, and continue to shape, today's distress investment environment. Combine this with the fact that the discipline of distress investing doesn't always follow what conventional wisdom says, and you can see why it is one of the most challenging areas in finance. Nobody understands this better than Martin Whitman—the legendary founder of Third Avenue Management LLC and a pioneer in the field of distressed markets—and leading academic Dr. Fernando Diz of Syracuse University. That's why they decided to write Distress Investing. As an outgrowth of annual distress and value investing seminars the two have taught together at Syracuse University's Martin J. Whitman School of Management, this reliable resource will help you gain a better understanding of the essential principles and techniques associated with distress investing and show you how to effectively apply them in the real world. Divided into four comprehensive parts—the General Landscape of Distress Investing, Restructuring Troubled Issuers, the Investment Process, and Cases and Implications for Public Policy—this book comprehensively covers the practice of buy-and-hold investing in distressed credits, whether it be performing loans or the reinstated issues of a reorganized issuer. From the recent changes to U.S. bankruptcy code and creditor rights to cash bailouts, you'll quickly learn how to analyze distressed situations such as pricing issues, arbitrage opportunities, tax disadvantages, and the reorganization of funding plans. Along the way, case studies of both large and small distress investing deals—from Kmart to Home Products International—will give you a better perspective of the business. Critical topics addressed throughout these pages include: Chapter 11 bankruptcy and why it's not considered an ending, but rather a beginning when it comes to distress investing The "Five Basic Truths" of distress investing The difficulty of due diligence for distressed issues Distress investing risks—from reorganization risk to risk associated with the alteration of priority of payments in bankruptcy Valuing companies by both going concern as well as their resource conversion attributes In today's turbulent economic environment, distress investing presents some enticing opportunities. Put yourself in a better position to excel at this endeavor with Distress Investing as your guide.

This study compares changes in investment, financing and company performance following distressed and non-distressed renegotiations of bank loans. Distressed and non-distressed debt renegotiations are distinguished by use of various credit scoring models. Outcomes are further examined along the impact of creditor bargaining power and renegotiation frictions. The study finds that distressed renegotiations are followed by a decrease in leverage and firm investment and an improvement in company performance. In contrast, non-distressed renegotiations are mainly followed by further increases in investment and leverage, which suggests pre-dominance of renegotiations not associated with any kind of default. In addition, non-distressed renegotiations are shown to lead to a decrease in company performance. No dominant effect of bargaining power and renegotiation friction proxies is evident. Overall, the findings partly support prior empirical evidence and cast doubt on the desirability and efficiency of frequent debt renegotiations outside of distress.

Philipp Jostarndt studies distress-induced changes in ownership and control, success factors in distressed equity infusions, and firms’ choice between in- and out-of-court debt restructurings. In addition, he analyzes the determinants of survival, acquisition, and bankruptcy as alternative paths to exit financial distress. He includes both the firm perspective as well as the market valuations of the undertaken restructurings and, where applicable, relates the findings to the microstructure of Germany’s revised bankruptcy legislation.

During the past few decades, private equity (PE) has attracted considerable attention from investors, practitioners, and academicians. In fact, a substantial literature on PE has emerged. PE offers benefits for institutional and private wealth management clients including diversification and enhancement of risk-adjusted returns. However, several factors such as liquidity concerns, regulatory restrictions, and the lack of transparency limit the attractiveness of some PE options to investors. The latest volume in the Financial Markets and Investments Series, Private Equity: Opportunities and Risks offers a synthesis of the theoretical and empirical literature on PE in both emerging and developed markets. Editors H. Kent Baker, Greg Filbeck, Halil Kiymaz and their co-authors examine PE and provide important insights about topics such as major types of PE (venture capital, leveraged buyouts, mezzanine capital, and distressed debt investments), how PE works, performance and measurement, uses and structure, and trends in the market. Readers can gain an in-depth understanding about PE from academics and practitioners from around the world. Private Equity: Opportunities and Risks provides a fresh look at the intriguing yet complex subject of PE. A group of experts takes readers through the core topics and issues of PE, and also examines the latest trends and cutting-edge developments in the field. The coverage extends from discussing basic concepts and their application to increasingly complex and real-world situations. This new and intriguing examination of PE is essential reading for anyone hoping to gain a better understanding of PE, from seasoned professionals to those aspiring to enter the demanding world of finance.

The books is a hands-on resource for family offices and those investors interested in generating returns through private company ownership to be more effective in creating returns in a complex market. Direct investing best practices are explored in-depth, with guidance on strategy and the evaluation and assessment of various investment opportunities. The process begins with a codified and specific investment goal, and a robust strategy tailored to the investor's individual needs. Useful insight on 'narrowing the field' helps investors select the appropriate opportunities to meet their investment goals, and practical tools help streamline the process of capital deployment and in turn providing more opportunities to achieve desired returns.

This book bridges the gap between strategy and execution, with comprehensive guidance and real-world insights. Define and craft a focused investment thesis and appropriate timeline specific to your needs Identify the right type, size, duration, and risk profile aligned to your investment objectives Gain perspective on real-world direct investing and a deeper understanding of the risks and rewards Better understand best practices and institutional investment rigor to develop bespoke processes and policies that create better outcomes for independent investors Historically, extraordinary wealth has been created through equity in privately-held enterprise. Today, family offices and direct investors are looking more and more toward large capital deployment in early-stage and growth-oriented private equity investments, but are constrained by a lack of informed, established practices. The Complete Direct Investing Handbook provides the much-needed guidance and tools that can improve direct investment outcomes.
