According to the report published today by the venture data platform, MAGNiTT, and sponsored by SVC, the Private Equity landscape has displayed consistent growth since 2020, experiencing a substantial 3.7x rise in 2021 and further catapulting to 5.9x its 2021 level in 2022. Notably, the composition of PE transactions has undergone significant shifts, particularly with a pronounced emphasis on Buyout transactions. Between 2020 and 2023, Buyout transactions witnessed a notable 20-percentage point increase in their share of the total, while concurrently, Growth transactions saw a growth of 2 percentage points over the same period. Across the last five years, Buyout transactions have dominated the PE investment landscape, capturing an average of 80% of the total capital deployed in these transactions. This trajectory underscores the evolving dynamics and the increasing prominence of Private Equity within the Kingdom's financial ecosystem, reflecting a strategic shift in investment preferences.
