So far the financial crisis has centered around mortgages and mortgage backed assets. As the current historical crisis unfolds and gobbles up respected Wall Street investment banks - here is a question to ponder. Will private equity companies be next? Specifically, I mean firms who have more of leveraged buyouts on their books.
While I am yet to research the LBOs in the US in detail, I think there will be a number of firms (e.g.: Ontario Teachers) who have used debt as a source of capital for private equity buyouts. When debt becoming taboo, I wonder when will we see the contagion spread to this market!
