PrivCo CEO & Founder Sam Hamadeh stated: "Noticeable in last year's Top 10 Largest Private Equity Deals was the preponderance of secondary sales (sales by one private equity firm to another). In addition, in 2012 we saw the return of the use of high debt levels in Leveraged Buyouts by private equity firms, as leveraged financing and high yield debt markets for P.E. deals unfroze. 2012's Top 10 Largest Private-Equity Deals made it clear that -- after a several year lull during the recession -- multi-billion-dollar P.E. deals, as well as debt-heavy Leveraged Buyouts, are back."
