Why EMs - Generally
Too big to be ignored BRICs and Turkey, ME, SA, Nigeria, Malaysia, Indonesia sizeable share of global GDP Increasing share of global alternative investment Large, young, growing and urbanising population
Growth in disposable income and middle classes High relative GDP growth External debt as a percentage of GDP has fallen improving sovereign credit worthiness and encouraging
investment. Growth has been driven by significant increases in consumer spending and domestic investment. Consumer focused businesses including fast moving consumer goods, retail, specialised manufacturing, IT,
leisure, media and financial services all experiencing strong growth
Improving operating environment Highly qualified business leaders often with developed world experience Improving liberalisation, governance, legal systems, sanctity of contract and market conditions
Increased exit opportunities and ability to achieve downside investment protection Increased trade sale opportunities with increasing interest from global players in emerging markets Improved liquidity in local stock markets
Natural resources and Infrastructure Substantial deposits of natural resources supported by strong demand from global economies Acceptance of the importance of infrastructure to grow and need for governments to engage with private

Competitive and compelling returns – definitely not a “black box”

Looking to the Future…………but First a glimpse at Global PE pre ‘the Crisis’
1. Abundant capital, easy capital raising, plentiful first time funds, numerous multi-billion dollar funds
2. Mega deals order of the day, many deals of more than $5bn completed
3. Aggressive debt deals, easy covenants, huge gearing, Debt/EBITDA multiples >6x
4. High valuations/prices paid and received thus high IRRs
5. Great exit multiples (EBITDA multiples of >10x) and numerous exit alternatives
6. Regular fund distributions to investors
7. Buyouts and BRICs in vogue - LPs increase allocations to PE
8. New themes emerge: green, renewable, infra, resources, Islamic
9. New geographies, products and investors arrive – Africa, mezzanine, SWFs
10.Private equity remains private
1. Besides BRICs EMs never had abundant capital
2. Deals typically less than $1bn
3. Leverage less of a factor in deal structuring
4. Valuations also high but more reasonable
5. Exit multiples also high
6. Reasonable but relatively lower distributions
7. Increased allocations to EMs
8. On the fringe of new themes
9. Classic PE model applies, few new products lots of new investors
10. Ditto

After the Crisis…………what is happening
1. Global deal values down from $600bn in 2007 to $250bn in 2008
2. Deal sizes down and fewer deals coming to market
3. Focus becomes value preservation of existing investments
4. Commitments to new funds down significantly but uninvested capital over $1 trillion
5. Fund distributions down over one yr by over 75%
6. Reduced prices, more credible valuations
7. Negligible debt, tougher terms, Debt/EBITDA multiples tumble
8. Fund returns crash, write-offs and write-downs resulting from mark-to-market takes its toll
9. Less opportunities for exits, $30bn of pulled exits
10. Investeee companies run into trouble – earnings and cashflows hit, financing challenges, need for more capital
1. Deal values down but not as drastic
2. Deal sizes marginally impacted but fewer deals being done
3. Value preservation of existing investments key
4. Commitments to new funds down significantly
5. Fund distributions down
6. Reduced prices, credible valuations
7. Acquisition leverage less important
8. Fund returns less impacted by mark-to-market
9. Less exits
10. Investeee companies less impacted as lower leverage

Emerging Market Themes to Come……of many………………….
Infrastructure is one of the fastest growing sectors for PE funds focused on EMs
− Estimates are that up to $2 trillion needs to be spent annually on infrastructure in EMs over the next few years (BRICs account for most of this).
− PE fund raising for infrastructure in EM grew from $3.4bn in 2007 to $8.4bn in 2008 and is projected at $20bn for 2009/10 (in developed markets it fell by 26% to $20bn)
− Less than 15 dedicated EM PE Infra funds and possibly 100 in western markets
− Governments need the private sector to make projects happen therefore PPPs on the up - consequently operating environments also improving
− Risk adjusted returns <20%
Debt and Mezzanine Funds
− Availability of long term and structured debt very limited at present and local currency funds non-existent
− Few debt/mezzanine funds operating in EMs – they are small <$200m and probably less than 10 in number
− Demand for non-dilutive, sub-ordinated capital, local currency funding and longer tenors extremely high
− Particular emphasis on growth capital for mid-sized corporates
− Risk adjusted returns of 12%-20% depending on nature of mezzanine vs senior debt
− Fee structures not as aggressive
14
Emerging Market Themes to Come……of many………………….
Africa
− GDP growth of 5-7% since 2001, 2009 forecast at 2% rest of world declining by 1.3%.
− 25 yrs ago 3 democracies, today over 40
− Improved governance, economic and central bank management
− National debt down from 80% of SSA GDP to 23% in 2008 – so debt cycle broken and GDP freed up for investment and consumption. Improved sovereign credit worthiness and encouraging FDI
− Assisted by improved commodity prices in a commodity rich region
− Trade has a huge impact. In 1995 $4bn exported to BRICs and in 2007 $48bn – laying foundation for investment and growth
− Africa has huge infrastructure needs - SSA for example only generates as much power as the whole of Spain – infra financing gap is over $30bn
− Key target countries: Nigeria - World’s 41st largest economy 2008 GDP of US$214 billion Population exceeding 140 million (highest in Africa) World’s 8th largest exporter of petroleum and founding member of OPEC
South Africa - World’s 32nd largest economy 2008 GDP of US$277 billion Population of 48 million Developed financial system
15
Emerging Market Themes to Come……of many………………….
Islamic Funds
Enormous investor liquidity for both equity and bespoke debt products
Growth driven by world's 1.2bn Muslims seeking investments that comply with beliefs
Over 50 countries are members of the Islamic Development Bank
300 Islamic banks and investment firms
Potential size of the Islamic PE industry could exceed $40bn by 2011
Estimated that Islamic banks will hold 40%-50% of Muslims’ savings in 10 years
Shariah compliance for PE investment less complex than perceived
Target countries: GCC, Kazakhstan, Nigeria, North Africa, Pakistan, Indonesia, Malaysia

Conclusion
Whilst allocations are being cut globally EMs will become more relevant as a home for alternative investment – investors will allocate more to the sector
BRICs may dominate but second tier countries will become increasingly prevalent
Besides pure private equity expect more distressed, mezzanine and debt funds
Once the post crisis dust has settled and global recession resides expect scaling up by financial institutions and fund managers of EM PE expertise
Debt will remain tough to come by in EMs as with developed markets but will not stop deals happening
Great buying time prevails
