Alessandro Capogrosso Featured in Advisor Discussing the Evolving Relationship Between Private Equity and Capital Markets

Strategic transactions and private equity partner Alessandro Capogrosso recently authored a piece in Advisor examining the increasingly integrated relationship between private equity and capital markets and how private equity and capital markets should no longer be seen as alternatives, but as complementary tools that can be leveraged at different stages in the business cycle to support company growth, especially in today’s dynamic environment.

He highlights the increasingly central role played by private equity not only as a source of capital, but also as a driver of industrial aggregation, M&A execution, governance enhancement, and managerial development. Meanwhile, the stock market has become just one of several exit options, rather than the default goal for growing companies. The article also explores the growing relevance of alternative liquidity solutions – including secondary buyouts, continuation funds and strategic transactions – reflecting a market in which exits are becoming more structured, flexible and execution-driven.

Alessandro concludes that, in this evolving landscape, companies are best positioned for success when they strategically leverage both private equity and capital markets throughout their business cycle.
