Private Equity Info is a leading source of information on private equity firms, their investment interests, portfolio companies, and professional biographies. Featuring a regularly updated database of hundreds of firms and thousands of contacts, your subscription to Private Equity Info is a valuable resource for information on financial buyers, mezzanine investors and hedge funds.

Search Functionality

Private Equity Info provides subscribers with three proprietary databases:

Database 1
U.S. private equity buyout firms, their contact information, investment interests and acquisition criteria.

Database 2
The business description of portfolio companies held by U.S. private equity firms (over 18,000 companies).

Database 3
The biographies, title and email address (where available) of private equity professionals.

Users may search these three databases using any of our four unique search engines:

Search 1 - Private Equity Investors Sorted by Acquisition Criteria
Sort private equity firms by industry of investment interest, by financial acquisition criteria, by transaction type and/or by the headquarters of the private equity firm.

Search 2 - Keyword Search the Business Profile of all Portfolio Companies
This database contains business descriptions of over 18,000 portfolio companies owned by U.S. private equity firms.

The output of this search is a list of portfolio companies that match your search criteria, the business profile of that portfolio company and the private equity firm that ultimately owns each portfolio company. It also shows the contact information for the private equity owner.

This targeted search allows users to quickly determine the exact investment interests of private equity firms, using current and past investments as a gauge of the firm's investment appetite in that industry or sector. It also allows users to find private equity firms who might have a strategic interest in a particular business or industry.

Search 3 - Keyword Search the Biographies of Private Equity Professionals
This database contains the biographies of private equity professionals.

The output of this search is a list of private equity professionals whose biographies match your search criteria, their firm name, title, email address and biography.

Often, a professional's biography will contain the portfolio companies in which the he or she holds a seat on the Board. This is useful to determine the proper contact within a private equity firm for a particular opportunity.

Search 4 - View Private Equity Firms (alphabetically)
This is an alphabetical list of the private equity firms in our database.
