Study: Transaction and Monitoring Fees in Private Equity Deals
Recently, Dechert and Preqin combined to put out this study that analyzes transaction and monitoring fees in private equity deals. The study found that there has been a notable increase in the mean and median percentage transaction fees across all private equity deal sizes since the recovery began, comparing the 2009-2010 period to the 2005-2008 period. Average monitoring fees have also increased during this period, although these vary more depending on deal size.
