Abstract

[fre] L’industrie américaine du private equity a été durement touchée par la crise. Après une période d’activité sans précédent de 2004 à 2007, elle est aujourd’hui confrontée à de multiples défis : une baisse considérable du niveau des investissements, des investisseurs qui cherchent à lui imposer un mode de fonctionnement plus transparent et moins onéreux, ainsi qu’une réglementation à laquelle elle avait échappée depuis ses débuts, dans les années 1980. Cette conjonction de facteurs devrait modifier durablement et en profondeur ce secteur d’activité et l’entraîner dans une certaine normalisation. . Classification JEL : G01, G24, G28. [eng] The American Private Equity Industry After the Crisis : Towards Reshaping and Maturity . The American private equity industry has been badly hurt by the financial crisis. After a short period of exuberant boom, it collapsed abruptly. In the aftermath, it has to face three major challenges. Firstly, the shrinkage of activity is such that many general partners may have to quit the market ; secondly, investors in private equity funds are taking advantage of this situation to enforce a better governance and to cut the rent of the GP and thirdly, the entrance of the industry in the regulated area will force it to act in a more transparent way. For all, these reasons, the shape of the American private equity will certainly deeply change and evolve towards a more standardized operating mode. . Classification JEL : G01, G24, G28.
