Some very useful insights. Thank you for sharing. “It’s like selling your house. You can ask a lot for it but, at the end of the day, the market tells you what it’s worth. Great businesses get high valuations and businesses that need a bit more support, need a bit more change, get lower valuations. The nuance that has obviously played into the market over the last couple of years is when your risk-free base rate is effectively zero percent, then the level of return you need, whether it be from a corporate, from a listed business or pro-equity business, was lower, and therefore the multiples could be higher. With the risk-free rate now at 5% in the UK, different elsewhere, clearly the multiples need to change to reflect that because when you can get 5% by just sticking it in the bank, your expectation around the level of return you want on whatever platform of investing, is higher. So the only delta in that is the multiple has to come down. Phenomenal businesses that have great growth, they will still go for very high multiples because the expectation around growth is still very high”
