We’re continuing our M&A Market Insights series with Part 4 of 6!

In this segment, Hannelore Jones and Max Friar shift the conversation squarely to how to evaluate different kinds of business buyers.

In this episode, Max and Hannelore break down how private equity (PE) has evolved in the lower middle market and the middle market over the years. Also, Max shares what business owners should understand when choosing between financial, strategic, and individual buyers.

Max shares his experience on how PE firms generally approach ownership, management retention, and growth. He also covers why strategics aren’t always the highest offer or best fit, and how legacy and autonomy factor into the right buyer decision.
