We surveyed our deep network of private equity managers for insights on the impacts of President Trump’s tariff announcement.

Our paper presents key findings from our survey of more than 100 private equity managers worldwide. Insights include:

  • Expected implications on portfolio company revenue, operating costs and EBITDA
  • Potential impacts by sector
  • Mitigation strategies that private equity-backed companies are considering to safeguard and enhance portfolio value

We believe these findings highlight the general resilience of private equity portfolios, as well as the measures experienced managers are taking to navigate these uncertain times.
