Summary: THIS IS AN AUDIO-ONLY VERSION OF A VIDEO INTERVIEW FOUND ON PRIVCAP.COM. VIEW THE FULL VIDEO HERE: How will India's macro story affect private equity performance? It's what international investors watching macroeconomic and regulatory challenges multiply in India have been wondering. These three experts have some strong views to share. As you will learn from Mukul Gulati, Managing Director of Zephyr Peacock India Management,Sev Vettivetpillai, CEO of Aureos Capital (an Abraaj division), and Parag Saxena, Founding General Partner and CEO of New Silk Route, Indian businesses “have tremendous energy” and enjoy “such a demand for good products or good services” that an economic slowdown should serve as a poor excuse for investment failure. This is the second of a three-part discussion series. The first segment is called "Subcontinental Deal Flow." Topics include the crucial skills that entrepreneurs must have to survive a weak macro story, how economic backdrop does not dictate destiny, worry over a tax policy aimed at foreign capital, the surprising strength of Indian-African business ties, and how trends in the capital markets will affect exit opportunities.
