Not such an extreme year

Article Abstract:

The UK buyout market continued to become more regional in nature in 1998, with almost every funding and advisory service being available locally. Local relationships are now developing into national and international transaction support. There was a strong supply of public-to-private opportunities in 1998 as the stock market became more selective about the scale and sector of its members, and this trend looks set to continue in 1999. The exit environment is becoming more difficult, and the private equity market may fuel a more proactive industry consolidation.
