前言
我国现有地下私募基金的总量远远超过在深沪两地挂牌的封闭 式基金。其总量保守估计已在2000亿元左右,较高估计则达 5000亿元。按此估算,考虑到这些私募基金主要投资于证券市 场,我们可以认为,虽然在深沪两地挂牌的证券投资基金的股 本和净值占流通市值的比率不到4%,但加上私募基金部分,则 这一比例有可能赶上甚至超过美国等发达国家的水平(美国 1999年投资基金占股票市值的比率为18%)。所以,私募基金 实力强大,私募管理人作为私募业的核心主体将会有更为广阔 的发挥空间,私募行业也会迎来全新的快速发展时期。

私募股权投最新资与被投资企业高管薪酬契约

私募股权投资与被投资企业高管薪酬契约——基于公司治理视角的研究王会娟/张然• 2013-04-16 17:20:54 来源:《管理世界》(京)2012年9期一、引言私募股权投资(Private Equity,简称PE)相对于公开发行股权而言,通常以基金的形式运作,通过非公开方式向特定投资人出售股权筹集资金,然后对非上市公司进行权益性投资,投资后进行管理使其增值,最终通过上市、并购或管理层收购及柜台市场股权转让等方式实现退出并获得收益。
PE是20世纪以来全球金融领域最成功的创新成就之一。
随着PE的快速发展,PE已经逐渐成为全球资本市场的新兴力量,私募股权投资相关研究也已经成为金融研究的重要领域。
近年来,我国越来越多的企业通过私募进行融资。
投中集团发布的《2010中国PE市场统计分析报告》显示,我国2010年全年披露PE投资案例375起,投资总额196.13亿美元,相比2009年分别上升114.0%和16.1%,无论披露投资案例数量还是投资金额,均达到历史最高。
私募股权投资过程主要包括四部分内容:融资、投资、管理、退出;涉及3个主体:投资者、PE管理者和项目资金使用者。
在这个过程中存在着双重的代理关系:第一重委托代理关系是融资时投资者和PE管理人之间的委托代理关系,即投资者(Limited Partner,LP)作为委托人,PE管理者(General Partner,GP)作为代理人。
两者通过双向选择,投资者将资金交与管理者,并成立私募股权基金。
第二重委托代理关系是投资时PE管理人和项目资金使用者之间的委托代理关系,PE管理人作为委托人,项目资金使用者作为代理人。
由于存在信息不对称,代理人可能产生两种行为倾向:道德风险和逆向选择(Jensen & Meckling,1976)。
而要降低道德风险和逆向选择发生的可能性,需要制定有效的激励和约束机制,来激励和约束PE管理人或项目资金使用者采取有利于出资人利益最大化的行为。

私募融资20问
私募融资20问1、什么是私募股权投资基金?私募股权投资基金是指通过私募形式对非上市企业进行权益性投资,投资者按照其出资份额分享投资收益,承担投资风险。
在交易实施过程中附带考虑了将来的退出机制,即通过上市、并购或管理层回购等方式,出售持股获利。
但是目前也有少部分私募股权基金投资已上市公司的股权,另外在投资方式上亦采取债权型投资方式,不过以上只占很少部分。
私募股权基金的投资对象主要是那些已经形成一定规模的,并产生稳定现金流的成熟企业,这是其与风险投资基金最大的区别。
2、私募股权投资基金有哪些类型?私募股权投资基金通常包括创业投资基金,并购投资基金,过桥基金。
创业投资基金投资于包括种子期和成长期的企业;并购投资基金投资于扩展期企业的直接投资和参与管理层收购;过桥基金则投资于过渡企业或上市前的企业。
3、什么是私募基金?私募基金,与公募基金相对,是指通过非公开的方式向特定投资者、机构与个人募集资金,按投资方和管理方协商回报进行投资理财的基金产品。
其方式基本有两种,一是基于签订委托投资合同的契约型集合投资基金,二是基于共同出资入股成立股份公司的公司型集合投资基金。
4、什么是私募融资?私募融资是指不采用公开方式,而通过私下与特定的投资人或债务人商谈,以招标等方式筹集资金,形式多样,取决于当事人之间的约定,如向银行贷款,获得风险投资等。
私募融资分为私募股权融资和私募债务融资。
私募股权融资是指融资人通过协商、招标等非社会公开方式,向特定投资人出售股权进行的融资,包括股票发行以外的各种组建企业时股权筹资和随后的增资扩股。
私募债务融资是指融资人通过协商、招标等非社会公开方式,向特定投资人出售债权进行的融资,包括债券发行以外的各种借款。
5、私募股权基金投资者对被投资企业进行尽职调查私募股权基金投资者对被投资企业进行尽职调查的内容主要包括八个方面:调查拟投资目标公司主体资格合法性。
对目标公司主体资格合法性的调查主要包括两个方面:一是其资格,即目标公司是否依法成立并合法存续,包括其成立、注册登记、股东情况、注册资本缴纳情况、年审、公司变更、有无吊销或注销等;二是其是否具备从事营业执照所登记的特定行业或经营项目的特定资质。

私募股权投资基金:收益特征、收益因素和投资者策略【外文翻译】
外文翻译原文Private equity funds: Return characteristics, return drivers andconsequences for investorsMaterial Source: Journal of Financial Transformation, 2005(12), p107-117.Author: Christoph Kaserer and Christian DillerIntroductionThis article addresses two important topics concerning the performance of private equity funds. Firstly, we argue that the performance of a private equity fund should not be measured by the IRR. Instead, we offer the PME as a more meaningful performance measure. On that basis we offer some performance data for mature European private equity funds. Secondly, we analyze what factors have an impact on these returns. In our perspective, this asset class is characterized by illiquidity, stickiness, and segmentation. As a consequence, we can show that the so-called ‘money chasing deals phenomenon’explains a significant part of the variation in private equity funds’ returns. Apart from the importance of fund flows, we can also demonstrate that the skills of the management team have a significant impact on the fund’s returns. Finally we discuss the impact of these results on private equity investment strategies.DatasetOver the last decade private equity has become an important asset class for institutional investors. For several reasons its importance will further increase over the years to come. Evidently, the changing regulatory environment will have a substantial influence in this process. Actually, the widespread implementation of international accounting rules in Europe (IFRS/IAS) may increase institutional investors’ propensity to allocate more of their investments to this asset class. On the other side, however, it may be that the ongoing change in banking and insurancesupervision makes private equity investments more expensive. Whatever the shift in the regulatory environment will be, any portfolio allocation decision is ultimately driven by return expectations. Therefore, there is a widespread need to gather more information on the historical performance record of private equity investment. It is the aim of this article to make a contribution with respect to that question.The past three years have been extremely good for private equity with returns for all but the smallest funds comfortably beating the S&P 500 index. Long-term performance also looks strong, at least at first glance. From 1980 to 2001, the average fund generated higher gross returns than investing in the S&P 500, according to a study by Steve Kaplan of the University of Chicago and Antoinette Schoar of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.The results of this article are based on a large dataset provided by the European Venture Capital and Private Equity Association (EVCA) and Thomson Venture Economics (TVE). It consists of 777 European private equity funds with vintage years from 1980 to 2003. At this point it should be noted that one cannot calculate a time weighted return for a private equity fund due to the unobservable market price. This again is a very important difference with public market funds. It is well known that the alternative to a time weighted return is a value weighted return, with the IRR being the most prominent example. However, the IRR can only be calculated if the complete cash flow history of a fund is known. For most of the funds in our dataset this is not the case, as most of them were still in operation by the year 2003. Only 95 funds in the dataset were liquidated by that year. Looking at liquidated funds only could bias our findings, as there would be an under representation of more recent vintage years in our sample2.Performance analysis of private equity funds:Some puzzling issues in return measurementWe start with presenting the results of the return distribution of our sample of European private equity funds. We have already pointed out that for an illiquid asset, i.e., an asset without an observable market price, a time weighted return cannot be calculated. The most frequent alternative used is the IRR, which is also a very common return measure used by the private equity industry. Two important drawbacks of this approach should be mentioned here [Kaserer and Diller(2004b)]. Firstly, it is well known from finance textbooks that the IRR is not a return measure but just a critical interest rate giving the maximum opportunity cost of capitalsupported by the project under analysis. In other words, if the IRR is equal to 15% then the investment in that project generates value as long as the cost of capital is not higher than 15%. From this it follows that the comparison of different investment projects on the basis of the IRR makes no sense. We will see in the following that this is not just a theoretical argument, but that there is a possible pitfall when comparing existing private equity funds on the basis of their IRRs.Secondly, institutional investors need information about the return distribution of private equity investments in order to feed their asset allocation models. By definition, all these models start from the distribution of time weighted returns. Furthermore, an asset allocation approach makes the use of a value weighted return meaningless. Hence, the IRR provides only limited information to limited partners (LP) in private equity funds. Evidently, this is also true for the multiple, another return measure used in the industry. As a multiple does not even account for the time value of money, its shortcomings are more than obvious.Now, the interesting question is whether there is any alternative to the IRR that is not affected by these caveats. Well, the answer is yes, although this alternative return measure, which is called the public market equivalent (PME), comes at a price. Basically, under this approach the simplifying assumption is made that the opportunity cost of a private equity investment is equal to the rate of return of a public market benchmark [Kaserer and Diller (2004b)]. Using this assumption, any cash flow pattern of a private equity fund could be transformed over time in an arbitrary way, as any distribution can be reinvested in the benchmark portfolio for whatever period is desired.Finally, it should be noted that there is a second alternative to the IRR used in the literature, namely the excess-IRR approach. It is defined as the IRR of a single fund minus the return on a benchmark index over the fund’s lifetime. It is presumed that in this way the return of a fund is benchmarked against a public market investment. However, given that the IRR is not an appropriate return measure, any other measure based directly on the IRR must suffer from the same problems. We will see that, in fact, a fund ranking based on the excess-IRR approach can contradict a fund ranking based on the PME approach.Evidence of the money chasing deals phenomenon It has already been argued that the paradigm of frictionless and perfectly competitive capital markets cannot be applied to the private equity market. Mainlythis is due to three specific characteristics of this market: segmentation, stickiness, and illiquidity. Convincing evidence in this regard has already been presented by Gompers and Lerner (2000), who show that capital inflows into venture funds increase the valuations of venture deals. Although it is an open question whether increased valuations are triggered by money pouring into the private equity industry or whether this money flow is triggered by improved expectations of future investment opportunities, and hence by increased valuations, Gompers and Lerner (2000) present some evidence that is more consistent with the former hypothesis. They basically argue that there is a limited number of favorable investments in the private equity industry giving way to the so-called money chasing deals phenomenon.Segmentation might be an especially important argument in this regard. Actually, private equity funds are not normally allowed to invest their committed capital in any other asset class. Often, they are even restrained from investing in segments within the private equity industry. Hence, even if the GPs would be aware of an overvaluation in the industry or in a specific part of the industry, it would be hard for them to redirect their money towards other investment projects. As a second problem, Ljungqvist and Richardson (2003) point out that capital flows between GPs and LPs tend to be sticky, i.e., it takes a longer time to adjust the capital invested in the industry to changed expectations or valuations. Those who are not familiar with private equity funds should note that such a fund typically collects capital commitments during its fundraising. Committed capital, however, is not paid into the fund immediately, but drawn down over a period of 3 to 5 years, depending on the market conditions. Now, if expectations of investors improve because of improved economic prospects, capital commitments would increase. However, it may take months or even years before the money is completely drawn down. Hence, it may well be that the time pattern of capital supply does not match the capital demand caused by attractive target companies. This mismatch may be accentuated because one can easily imagine that attractive investment opportunities are fixed in the short-run. So, if the market is not perfectly flexible and investors do not have perfectly rational foresight, it might be the case that abundant capital supply faces only a small number of promising target companies. In that situation, deal competition may be high, which would push prices higher. Alternatively, it could be that capital supply is scarce, while the number of promising target companies is high. In that case deal competition is low and entrepreneurs have to offer shares in theircompanies at rather low prices.Finally, illiquidity, i.e., the absence of a secondary market, aggravates the pressure on deal pricing. Because investors already engaged in the private equity market cannot sell their investment stakes, additional money pouring into the industry must be absorbed in the primary markets in their entirety.What is the impact of the GP’s skills?From the specific characteristics of the private equity market it follows that skills of the management team could have a more significant impact on fund returns than is the case for funds investing in public securities markets. In efficient public markets a great deal of information, public or private, is incorporated in asset prices. Hence, the ultimate outcome of an investment strategy should be almost the same, regardless of whether the investor undertakes informational activities or not. In fact, there is no clear evidence from the mutual fund performance literature that fund returns may be driven by fund managers’ skills, like selection or timing abilities.We would expect fund management skills to be much more important in private equity funds than in public mutual funds. knowledge about investment opportunities in the private equity industry may be distributed very unequally and, due to the lack of a secondary market for these assets, it may take a long time until this information is disseminated. Now, if there is a systematic difference in knowledge about private equity investment opportunities among different management teams, we would expect that good deals are concentrated in a small number of fund portfolios, i.e., the portfolios of the skilled management teams. The first consequence of this idea is that deal returns should have a much more skewed distribution than public stock market prices. In fact, private equity funds’ returns distributions are heavily skewed. Finally, if skills are unequally distributed at a given point in time, it may well be that their distribution is not independent over time. Hence, we would expect that returns of subsequent funds run by the same management team are correlated. This gives way to the so called persistence phenomenon in private equity funds’ returns.ConclusionIn this article a comprehensive dataset of European private equity funds was analyzed. In the first step we analyzed the performance of a sample of mature funds. Instead of using the widespread IRR as a performance measure, we introduced the PME-approach. As one would expect from theoretical considerations, we were ableto show that benchmarking on an IRR-basis could lead to substantially distorted results. Moreover, even a ranking of different funds on basis of the IRR could generate pitfalls. Hence, LPs should not benchmark the track record of a GP on the basis of IRR; they should instead use the PME.The main focus of this article, however, was to give new insights into the determinants of funds’ returns. For that purpose we started from the presumption that the private equity asset class is characterized by illiquidity, stickiness, and segmentation. It has been argued in theoretical and empirical papers that these characteristics can cause an over- or undershooting of private equity asset prices, at least in the short-run. We document that funds closed in periods where overshooting is less present have significantly higher returns than funds closed during these periods. Hence, the so-called money chasing deals phenomenon is an important factor in explaining private equity returns. From an investment perspective, this result has two implications. Firstly, a private equity investor should implement a contrarian investment strategy, in the sense that he should invest when overshooting does not occur. Secondly, diversifying funds over different vintage years as well as different fund types seems to be very important for reducing the risk of being exposed to the money chasing deal phenomenon.Apart from the importance of fund flows the article also shows that GPs’ skills have a significant impact on fund returns. More precisely, returns of subsequent funds run by the same management team are correlated. So, we present evidence in favor of the persistence phenomenon governing the returns of European private equity funds. From an investment perspective it is, however, rather difficult to base an investment strategy on this result. Although the result is a justification of why track records are very important for inferring the abilities of a management team, it is of little help as this information is almost public. Nevertheless, the result indicates that the selection of a management team is a key success factor for private equity investments.Due to the specific characteristics of the private equity asset class — i.e., the illiquidity of the investment, the stickiness of fund flows, the restricted number of target companies, and the segmentation from other asset classes — the market may be far from being frictionless and perfectly competitive, at least in the short-run. Overall, the lack of an organized secondary market seems to be the crucial factor.译文私募股权投资基金:收益特征、收益因素和投资者策略资料来源:金融转型[J]. 2006(5),第5期,p107-117.作者:克里斯多夫·卡瑟勒尔,克里斯汀·第勒尔引言本文以论述私募股权投资基金两种重要的运作业绩表现为主题。
私募股权投资基金基础知识考点精析
私募股权投资基金基础知识全称“私人股权投资基金”(Private Equity Fund),指主要投资于“私人股权”(Private Equity),即非公开发行和交易股权的投资基金。
包括非上市企业和上市企业非公开发行和交易的普通股、可转换为普通股的优先股和可转换债券。
在国际市场上,股权投资基金既有非公开募集(私募)的。
也有公开募集(公募)的.在我国,只能以非公开方式募集。
准确含义应为“私募类私人股权投资基金”.与货币市场基金、固定收益证券等“低风险、低期望收益"资产相比,股权投资基金在资产配置中具有“高风险,高期望收益”特点。
股权投资基金起源于美国.1946年成立的美国研究与发展公司(ARD)全球第一家公司形式运作的创业投资基金。
早期主要以创业投资基金形式存在.1953年美国小企业管理局(SBA)成立,1958年设立“小企业投资公司计划”(SBIC),以低息贷款和融资担保的形式鼓励小企业投资公司,以增加对小企业的股权投资。
1973年美国创业投资协会(NVCA)成立,标志创业投资成为专门行业。
20世纪50~70年代,主要投资于中小成长型企业,是经典的狭义创投基金。
70年代后,开始拓展到对大型成熟企业的并购投资,狭义创投发展到广义.1976年KKR成立,专业化运作并购投资基金,经典的狭义的私人股权投资基金.特别是80年代美国第四次并购浪潮,催生了黑石(1985)、凯雷(1987)、和德太(1992)等著名并购基金管理机构。
过去,并购基金管理机构作为NVCA会员享受行业服务并接受行业自律。
2007年,KKR、黑石、凯雷、德太等脱离NVCA,发起设立服务于狭义股权投资基金管理机构的美国私人股权投资协会(PEC)。
狭义上的股权投资基金特指并购投资基金,但后来的并购投资基金管理机构也兼做创业投资,同时市场上出现了主要从事定向增发股票投资的股权投资基金、不动产投资基金等新的股权投资基金品种,一般广义股权投资基金概念。
