The New Zealand private equity and venture capital monitor 2008

Results from the 2008 New Zealand Private Equity & Venture Capital Monitor show consistency of deal activity at reduced investment levels in the New Zealand private capital market.The total FY08 investment of NZ$178.1m was lower than FY07. This decrease was primarily driven by the absence of top-end/LBO private equity deals since FY07 first half and is reflective of debt market conditions post the global financial crisis.
