Leisure deals continue to dominate UK private equity market

Hotel and leisure deals are set to remain dominant in for UK private equity firms in 2004, having dominated the market for the last three years. Deals worth around £6bn were concluded in the UK leisure industry in 2004 according to figures from the Centre for Management Buyout research. The sector accounted for nearly half of the top 20 transactions by value in 2003. The expected deregulation in the UK gaming industry is likely open up this sub-sector to private equity buyers.
