Private equity firms worldwide are confronting a substantial challenge: a backlog of approximately 33,000 unsold portfolio companies. This situation has developed into a significant bottleneck within the industry. Despite current market volatility creating potential openings for new private equity deals, it has not eased the pressure of resolving this extensive portfolio overhang.
