Abstract/Summary

In this paper, we highlight the key changes in the PE governance model especially relevant to governance in secondary buyouts (SBOs). Generally, buyouts can be PE-backed or non-PE backed deals. We focus on PE-backed SBOs and PE-backed primary buyouts (PBO). We also survey recent literature on SBOs. Finally, we conclude and identify some emerging research themes on PE and governance in SBOs.
