Companies based in the US dominated the top 20 deals in September and the
aggregate value of these deals amounted to USD 12,732 million, the largest
of which was Vista Equity Partners acquiring Tibco Software in an institutional
buyout worth USD 4,300 million
However, it was a Chinese target which accounted for the biggest PE deal by
value for the month as Sinopec Marketing, a wholly-owned subsidiary of China
Petroleum & Chemical, agreed to raise USD 17,442 million in cash through
the issue of new shares to investors.
Other targets featured in the top 20 include Sierra Oil & Gas of Mexico,
Pioneer DJ of Japan, Roc Oil of Australia and the UKs Bristol Airport.
The value of investment in US-based targets rose 48 per cent month-onmonth to USD 14,864 million (August: USD 10,044) against an 11 per cent
decline by volume. However, despite this weakening, companies in the country
remained the main targets of PE dealmaking in September.
An increase in the value of PE investment in companies based in Mexico,
Australia, Japan and India came at the expense of those in France (August:
USD 3,288 million; September: USD 245 million) and Canada (August: USD
12,032 million; September: USD 187 million).
