Description

About this course

In this course, I'll take you through the essentials of PE. This course is designed to give a thorough tour through the fundamentals of private equity, the basic structures and functions of private equity firms, the different strategies, the deal and investment process and the essentials of modelling private equity deals. Throughout the course, I’ll use practical examples to help bolster your understanding. There will also be a deep dive into the LBO process.

This course is designed for:

  • Candidates looking to land private equity or investment banking jobs and blitz the recruiting process

  • Students or professionals who are interested in learning more about private equity

This course will be split into 2 core parts:​​

  1. Private Equity Introduction: I’ll provide a primer on private equity, we’ll discuss what private equity is, the typical PE fund lifecycle and investment process, the structure of PE funds, the different types of PE investment strategies and an overview of the PE Market.

  2. Leveraged Buyouts Investment Process: We’ll zoom in on the leveraged buyout. Here, I will discuss the specifics on the the most common and recognisable PE investment sub-field - the Leveraged Buyout or (LBO) process, the different sources PE firms generate high returns from investments, what makes a good LBO target, LBO deal capital structures, the different exit strategies. I aim to make this content as practical, useful and interesting as possible, so we’ll also be constructing our own LBO Model in excel - valuing an LBO deal. I find constructing the valuation of private equity transactions the most interesting and it will help bolster your understanding of the mechanics of how these investments make money. Recounting this process is very common in PE interviews and even investment banking interviews.

A bit about myself:

I currently work as an analyst at JP Morgan and have previously worked as a buy-side Investment Analyst at a highly regarded diversified equity fund manager. I also have experience at notable firms including Deloitte and Grant Thornton, as well as an industry-leading and fast-growing tech company headquartered in San Francisco.

I am going to do my best to make the content easy to understand but also thorough, that way you know how to apply this knowledge in the future. So I hope you find it interesting and I’m excited to begin this Private Equity journey with you.

Presumed Knowledge:

It is recommended that you have a basic understanding of corporate finance to best grasp concepts in the course.
