AFIC measures the economic and social impact of LBOs

A study carried out by AFIC in association with Constantin Associés and LEK Consulting has reported on the economic and social impact of LBOs on the development of businesses. The study reveals that those companies that are the subject of a leveraged buyout transaction achieve a superior growth rate to that of the economy. Of those companies researched for the purpose of this study, turnover increased by 30% during the first four years that follow the completion of an LBO, up 14% on the registered economic growth of 16%. In addition, workforce numbers increased on average by 9% each year, a growth rate 4 times faster than other companies sampled. The study concluded that 80% of managers were reported to have an excellent working relationship with financial sponsors.
