Zalis sponsors the Private Equity Exchange Europe 2oo8


NOVEMBER, 13th 2008. PARIS - Hotel Meridien Etoile. The largest Private Equity event in Europe for CEOs, Funds & LPs. Zalis as a leader in restucturing & turnaround has decided to promote this event.
The private equity industry was enjoying a golden period for the asset class. The credit crunch, which started in the US mortgage market last summer before spreading into other parts of financial system, has vastly reduced the amount of liquidity available. To private equity firms, whose spectacular returns in the past few years have been closely tied to ever-increasing amounts of leverage, the reduction in the availability of credit has been akin to having their air supply cut off.
Many questions are to be answered: is it a short-term debt bottleneck or long term crisis?
How to source debt in today’s market? How to structure deals under new market conditions?
How the underperformance should be managed? What are the opportunities of the distressed debt?...
More than 100 international speakers will share their insights and visions of the industry through the three-track conferences: LBO for Professionals, LBO for Management teams, Restructuring & Underperformance.
The highly effective one-day program will enable the delegates to assist to the conferences, networking lunch and one-to-one deal meetings with hundreds of the most highly regarded names in private equity industry.
