Abstract:
|
Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts & Co (KKR), one of the most
well-known leveraged buyouts (LBO) firms, is at the crossroads. KKR typically
used debt to buy out companies by raising money from institutional investors.
While one founder Jerome Kohlberg (Kohlberg) has left the firm many years ago
(1987), the other founders Henry Kravis (Kravis) and George Roberts (Roberts)
having turned 60 are on the verge of retirement. The LBO business has been
facing severe competition from other firms. As the number of attractive deals
has decreased, buyout firms are sharing takeover targets. Competition from
Thomas H Lee, Warburg Pincus, Carlyle and Blackstone is increasing. The case
discusses the changing scenario in the LBO business and the future of KKR.
