Rezensionen
'Based on his wealth of knowledge and experience, Thomas Meyer provides important insights into the private equity business and valuable advice to anyone involved in it. He describes how private equity is an engine of innovation and how the partnership model evolved as a central component of it. He cautions against some of the regulatory and valuation practices that are currently employed in the sector.'

'There is not much work on a subject as arcane as private equity asset management that can be read by both specialists and amateurs with the same pleasure of discovery or re-discovery. Private Equity Unchained succeeds in this feat by dissecting the subject in depth, but in my view, also by re-introducing the 'human factor' in its perspective of the Private Equity investment landscape. This fresh approach illustrates the dimensions of perpetual change, the biological foundations of human behavior and the uncertainty that goes with them.'
