At the end of June, private equity’s $1.48 Trillion in dry powder has done little to help the companies they own.
Thirty-four PE-backed companies went bankrupt from March to mid-June according to Pitchbook Inc., including Hertz, Neiman Marcus, and J Crew. Little capital has been spent to help save them.
While significant funding is earmarked for new investments, some feel PE could do more to help older investments. This would help the U.S. economy at a time of need, but also support workers/investors in companies that are struggling.
Computer simulation can support PE firms to identify data-driven, market-driven opportunities to inject capital wisely in current or potential new holdings. The power of simulation has grown exponentially during the tech boom, and can be leveraged quickly and cost effectively as a powerful tool to support decision-makers and explore potential options. MOSIMTEC is a leader in applying modeling and simulation tools to improve performance in a wide range of industries. Our industrial engineers and data scientists do this every day. MOSIMTEC is here to help.
