Preqin’s Q1 2009 Private Equity Spotlight Report

Preqin has just released the latest issue of it’s Private Equity Spotlight report. As always they do a very good job looking at the current state of fundraising. While they point out the dire state of funds looking to raise money, based on their polling of LPs, they predict that Q1 of this year will have been the low-point in fundraising. The report also has features on Sovereign Wealth Funds, and French funds (Preqin estimates that French funds have over €40 billion in available capital at the moment. Interesting).  

Anyway, you can read all that for yourself:
