One for those contemplating the route into PE at some point, a chance for a Friday rumination maybe..China - its big and its not local*, but global trends and all that...starting to freeze bankers our and hire from companies direct...says a lot about the changing model of PE, and one we may see replicated in Europe if the numbers stack up. and before anyone jumps in I'll add that this is in an IPO environment - the Chinese government ended their block on IPOs.Hmmm.Life? anyone know where I can get one?* unless you are Chinese, in which case it is. Local.
