EQT Chief Executive Christian Sinding Is Trying to Bring The Perks of Public Markets To Private Equity<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Christian Sinding believes private equity has a branding challenge. \u201cIt hasn\u2019t been the most transparent\u201d form of investing, says the chief executive and managing partner of EQT Partners. Moreover, the Oslo-born leader adds, some \u201cbad actors\u201d have given private equity a reputation for buying and stripping out value vs. buying and building.<\/p>\n

Sinding, 51, says the alternative investment firm was founded by Sweden\u2019s Wallenberg family in 1994 on a simple principle: \u201cHow could we be the best owner of companies that we could be while using the private-equity toolbox that was developed here in North America?\u201d<\/p>\n

The result has been one of the world\u2019s fastest-growing private equity firms, with a portfolio of 280 companies that together employ about a million employees. It completed a $7.5 billion merger with Baring Private Equity Asia earlier this year and has roughly $250 billion in total assets under management.<\/p>\n

While EQT itself is public, having listed on Nasdaq Stockholm in 2019, it has no immediate plans to list some of its portfolio companies through an IPO. Sinding blames regulatory hurdles and lackluster valuations for the decline in public companies and increase in PE-backed ones. [Its own shares, and that of rivals like KKR, Blackstone and TPG, have been choppy this year.]\n

Instead, Sinding says, EQT plans to now bring public-market tools to the private realm to give its 1,200+ investors more liquidity. Unlike OTC markets that facilitate direct sales between buyers, this will be an auction. As he notes, it\u2019s \u201cvery similar to buying stocks in the stock market, only it\u2019s private.\u201d<\/p>\n
