About the Book

Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,2, Durham University, language: English, abstract: This dissertation takes up the private equity topic and analyzes its impact on the employees of the portfolio companies.

On the one hand, H1 needs to be rejected as in 60% of the analyzed companies the number of staff decreased after the investment of a private equity company. On the other hand, H2 can be confirmed as the average wages of the remaining employees increased in 80% of the observed companies and also evolved better compared to their non-private equity backed peers. Additionally, this dissertation shows that the second year after the takeover (T+2) is rater special and re
