| Abstract: | With private equity increasingly growing in popularity as can be seen in fund size and amount of funds, family firm investments have been an unhighlighted part in research, while family firms represent a significant part of the global economy. This study analyses the post-buyout performance of family firms compared to non-family firms. Furthermore, this study analyses the overall post-buyout performance of a set of target firms. A sample of 364 buyouts in Europe from 2012 to 2017 was compiled. The results indicate a lower post-buyout performance for family firms compared to non-family firms. Moreover, the overall post-buyout performance was also negative. Private equity investors are advised to consider their family firm investments more carefully, taking into account potential non-financial goals, whereas family firm owners are advised to carefully analyse whether private equity is a viable exit option. |
