Private Equity Briefings
An essential read for private equity professionals navigating Canada’s evolving investment landscape. This series explores deal activity, emerging market trends and the strategic considerations shaping investment decisions.
Canadian private equity activity is up by deal count in Q3 2025 and global deal value rose year-over-year despite ongoing fundraising and exit pressures. In this edition of the PE Briefing, we examine the forces shaping capital deployment and structuring today—from the rapid evolution of private credit and the advantages of Ontario LPs for foreign sponsors, to practical guidance on negotiating earnouts. For investors, fund managers, and companies navigating complex transactions, these insights offer a focused lens on where opportunities and risks are emerging in the current market.
