| description | This thesis aims to understand the performance of private equity funds during economic crises and unfavorable macroeconomic conditions. To introduce the topic, I first review how private equity funds create value and how we can assess the performance of this industry.

Finally, using a large sample of private equity funds I do my own assessment of the performance of the industry and dig into what makes PE funds successful. |
