Description

Buyouts involve the acquisition of the total shares or a controlling stake in a company. Oliver Ahlers analyzes buyouts that involve family firms and private equity investors. The author starts with a comprehensive literature review on family firms, private equity, and buyouts. The focus of this book is on the key steps of the buyout process such as family firm valuation and negotiations. Additionally, it is investigated how soft factors such as affective commitment and trust could play a role in buyouts. Insights of this book are derived from a survey comprising almost 180 PE-backed buyouts in Europe.
