From the Back Cover
The Advanced Guide to Private Equity Accounting for Today’s Standards and Best Practices
Includes contributions from a team of experts from PwC, Deloitte, KPMG, Duff & Phelps, and TopQ
Mariya Stefanova and a team of world-class contributors cover many key issues and provide an additional five-chapter section with insights and expert advice on various strategies for limited partners (LPs), Fund-of-Funds (FoFs), and real estate, infrastructure, debt, and mezzanine funds. Drawing on their immense experience as practitioners and advisers, they offer exclusive insights based on real-world case studies and examples.
You’ll walk through the best way to make decisions about optimizing your accounting processes and improving the granularity of your reporting in light of complex PE structures and allocation rules. You’ll learn about the pitfalls of using IRR as a performance metric and the use of alternative performance metrics developed by academics and industry practitioners, such as MIRR, PME, PME+, and Peracs Alpha. You’ll be taken through the mechanics and tricks of the different carried interest arrangements. You’ll also discover easy-to-overlook accounting processes that could leave GPs vulnerable during LP fundraising, or leave LPs endangered if not detected in time. In addition, you will find the valuations of various financial instruments used in private equity and updates on the use of mathematical models such as option pricing models (OPM) and probability-expected weighted return models (PWERM) accompanied by a backsolve.
This book will be indispensable for private equity practitioners and fund accountants worldwide–GPs, LPs, fund administrators, and other PE service providers–regardless of their roles or the accounting standards they must follow.
