Webinar | Liquidity Solutions Academy
On Thursday, November 5, 2020, Lincoln International’s Chris Gregory, Managing Director in the firm’s Valuations and Opinions Group and leader of its fairness and solvency opinion practice, joined Kirkland & Ellis’ Liquidity Solutions virtual program alongside panelists from Houlihan Lokey and Duff & Phelps.
The panel tackled fairness opinions in GP-Led Secondary Fund Recapitalizations (“GP-Leds”) and the impact of COVID-19 on portfolio company valuations. Chris and the fellow panelists shared perspectives and answered key questions including:
- Why should a GP consider a fairness opinion in connection with a GP-Led and what are the benefits to the GP, LPAC, LPs and new SPV investors?
- Who are the typical engaging parties and recipients of a fairness opinion in a GP-Led or other PE affiliate party transactions?
- How does the fairness opinion process provider typically interact with the GP, LPs, LPAC and portfolio company management?
- How has COVID-19 affected valuation and fairness analysis?
