Start Ups

Enterprise technological start-ups represent the newly created firms with the possibility to rapidly develop and assume liquidity in the next few decades. The main purpose of this mode of expansion is to enhance finance development over considerably limited collateralizable fiscal assets. However, this is considered unattractive from the ancient banking corporations which have now been replaced by more sophisticated and specialized intermediaries such as the private equity funds or the venture capital that diversify business portfolios in reference to their strategies on multi-annual exit with firm projected increment in investment value that endured the Darwinian selection. In that regard, this paper conducts evaluation of firms and reviews their technological start-ups following traditional approaches, flanked based on certain elements derived from multiple-exit methods and varied probabilistic scenarios. The technological footprints showcase the evaluation analogies with know-how, intangibles and patents that are connected to certain sectors.

Managed Funds

The recent development of the securitisation of funds of private equity funds poses the question of the individual and joint modelling of the underlying funds. Private equity funds are different from other managed funds because of their particular bounded life cycle: when the fund starts, the investment partners make an initial capital commitment, the fund managers gradually draw down the committed capital into investments, returns and proceeds are distributed as the investments are realised and the fund is eventually liquidated as the final investment horizon is reached. Modelling private equity funds therefore requires three stages: the modelling of the commitment drawdowns, the modelling of the investment value and the modelling of the return repayments. A standard lognormal process is utilised for the dynamics of the investment value. Squared Bessel processes are utilised for the dynamics of the rates of drawdowns and repayments. Résumé: Le récent développement de la titrisation de fonds de fonds de placements privés pose la question de la modélisation individuelle et jointe des fonds sous-jacents. Les fonds de placements privés sont différents des autres sociétés d'investissement à cause de leur cycle de vie particulier et limité: au démarrage du fonds, les associés s'engagent sur un apport initial en capital; puis les gérants du fonds opèrent des tirages progressifs sur le capital apporté pour procéder à des investissements; les revenus et les profits sont distribués à mesure que les investissements sont réalisés; enfin, le fonds est liquidé lorsque l'horizon d'investissement est atteint. La modélisation d'un fonds doit donc se faire en trois étapes: la modélisation des tirages sur l'apport en capital, la modélisation de la valeur des investissements et enfin la modélisation des paiements et remboursements des dividendes et retours sur investissements. Un processus lognormal standard est utilisé pour la dynamique de la valeur des investissements. Des processus de Bessel carré sont utilisés pour la dynamique des taux de tirage et de remboursement.

Private Equity Investments

The influence of the private equity sector on the contemporary economy is quite significant. This is why the present paper attempts to examine mechanisms private equity investors apply in order to increase the value of their investments. The literature review has identified the most fundamen- tal elements of creating value on the basis of empirical, academic studies that verified hypotheses regarding the influence of particular mechanisms on the process of value creation in private equity investments. This paper is divided into five parts that describe the elements of the investment pro- cess, research into value creation, financial arbitration, as well as direct and indirect mechanisms of creating investment value. The paper is mainly based on the review of foreign-language literature.

Abstract Private equity and venture capital (PE/VC) funding is the provision of equity capital by financial investors to non-quoted companies with high growth potential. It has a particular emphasis on entrepreneurial activities rather than on mature businesses. PE/VC investors differ on several dimensions including: investment targets, screening evaluation methods, governance mechanisms, and objectives. The paper is a continuation of the discussion that concerns investment strategies of PE/VC funds. While studying the PE/VC market it is important to analyze the origin and structure of capital. The authors assumed that different types of investors have different investment strategies. Our research is an attempt to answer the following research question: whether the investor type, on the European PE/VC market, has an impact on the selection of industries. The paper presents results of statistical analysis of venture capital and private equity funds investment strategies in selected countries.
