PRESS RELEASES

Private business owners, senior lending, asset-based lenders, mezzanine fund managers, private equity groups, venture capital firms, attorneys and hedge fund managers may complete an online questionnaire investigating the major private capital market segments through Friday, November 13, 2009. Individual responses will be kept confidential.
The study, the second in an ongoing series by Pepperdine University’s Graziadio School of Business and Management, examines the private capital industry based on investment type, expected and historical rates of return, financial ratio thresholds, coupon rate distributions and other investment characteristics. Survey participants will receive a first look at the study’s revised outlook on private lending and investing, expected in the first quarter of 2010.
Conducted twice yearly, findings from the questionnaire seek to help private investors and lenders make optimal investment and financing decisions, as well as provide private business owners with a better understanding of the true cost of capital, the capital types available to them, and the requirements that must be met in order to raise new capital.
The first study report, released in July, has received near a thousand downloads by industry professionals and entrepreneurs to-date. Study results have been used in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Forbes.com, Venture Beat, PE Hub, USA Today and other outlets.
