Chapter Chapter 19 in Private Equity Unchained, 2014, pp 202-212 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The challenge of portfolio management in private equity is unusual because it takes place within an unknown and changing landscape — the primary job is to search for pockets of opportunity. The role of diversification is also idiosyncratic — we employ it because we do not know where exactly to search for opportunities and whether our search will be successful.
