In an increasingly demanding M&A market, the topic of \u2018exit readiness\u2019 has become increasingly important: strategy, key figures, equity story, vendor due diligence \u2013 how exit planning as an early component of strategic corporate development is becoming a decisive factor for success.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What could company managers and owners actually learn from the kings of deals \u2013 private equity investors \u2013 when it comes to preparing for a sale in order to make optimal sales proceeds more predictable?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this episode of What’s up, Corporate Finance?, Investec Managing Partner Thorsten Gladiator and Managing Director Sebastian Markowsky talk to financial editor Michael Hedtst\u00fcck about what entrepreneurs can learn from private equity firms about strategic exit preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. What can entrepreneurs actually learn from the kings of deals – the financial investors – when it comes to exit preparation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Is there a noticeable discrepancy between the long-term perspective with which PE investors prepare their exits and the M&A planning horizons of entrepreneurs?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Which issues should be clarified in advance of an M&A process rather than leaving them to the potential buyer? How essential is it to rehearse the equity story and management presentation intensively?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. What is the reality for medium-sized companies? How willing are entrepreneurs to learn from PE?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
