French LBOs top European performance tables, says AFIC

French LBOs generated a long-term net IRR of 14.5%, against an 11.4% average in Europe and 9.7% in the US, according to the study. Growth capital also performed well, with a 7.9% net IRR against a 2.8% European average. Overall, French private equity generated a long-term net IRR of 8.3% at the end of 2011.

That said, the long-term French performance declined by 100 basis points compared to the figures released at the end of 2010. Venture capital performance also remains below the European average with a -1.5% IRR – against +1.3% in Europe and +14.6% in the US.
