TY - JOUR T1 - Minority Private Equity JF - The Journal of Private Equity SP - 27 LP - 45 DO - 10.3905/jpe.1999.319962 VL - 2 IS - 4 AU - Philip Alphonse AU - Thomas Hellmann AU - Jane Wei Y1 - 1999/11/30 UR - https://pm-research.com/content/2/4/27.abstract N2 - This article examines the current changes in the minority segment of the private equity market. It argues that there is a confluence of three major changes: the demographic changes in the U.S. population, the changes in the amount of funding available for private equity, and the elimination of the SSBIC program. Together these changes imply a profound rethinking of the investment concepts in the minority market. ER -
