In our third edition of MoFo’s annual Global PE Trends and Outlook report, partners from around the globe review the key trends of 2022 and make predictions on the opportunities and challenges the PE industry may face in 2023 globally and in key jurisdictions including the U.S., Latin America, Europe, the UK, China, Southeast Asia, and Japan. We also discuss ESG and distressed situations, two areas of particular focus for the industry in 2023.

  • Continued increase in tech investing
  • PE opportunities in distressed situations
  • Protecting against downside risk
  • Sectors to watch include ag/agtech, fintech, AI, healthcare, and consumer
  • Likely return to China investing
  • Increased complexity in ESG
  • Focus on portfolio companies’ profitability
  • Debt market terms to tighten
  • Pace of exits may vary by region
