Private Equity in East Anglia

When clients talk to us about a management buyout or selling their business, we often raise private equity as an option they might consider instead of a trade sale. We take time to explain what private equity is, how it works, but sometimes clients just want to know “am I the right fit?”.

To try and answer that we have carried out some research on private equity backed companies across East Anglia . We excluded businesses that have just raised small amounts of seed finance, and also those fast-growing technology and life sciences businesses, which we have categorised as venture capital backed. In total we identified 89 different companies representing investments by over 50 different private equity funds, across a diversity of scale and sectors. For businesses out there looking for an exit, to fund a management buyout, or to raise growth capital, this should be encouraging.
