Chart of the week: U.S. private equity fundraising this year has a New York State of mind
From the beginning of the year 57 U.S. LBO and mezzanine funds have so far closed on capital, according to Thomson One, a product of Thomson Reuters. Of the 57, 19 (33%) were sponsored by firms based in New York. This is more than the next three states combined, and more than doubled second-place California.
