4 1.i. Private equity: fundraising Executive summary PE fundraising is up 9% through the end of May, with firms raising US$231b for commingled funds. Buyout and infrastructure is driving the trend. Buyout funds have accounted for 46% of funds raised this year, up from 39% last year. Dry powder remains the most important dynamic in the industry. Buyout firms have more than US$57b available for new deals. Adding other asset classes brings the total to more than US$1.5t available for investment. Current state Fundraising PE fundraising is seeing another strong year. To date, PE firms have closed funds valued at US$231b, up 9% from the same period last year. This represents the second-most active start to a year on record. Funds with the inherent ability to deploy large amounts of assets into the market are driving the trend. In the first five months of last year, buyout fundraising represented 39% of total PE fundraising. So far this year, buyout fundraising is 46% of total fundraising. Similarly, infrastructure increased from 1% of aggregate fundraising to 14%. Growth capital, real estate funds and other strategies have seen relative declines. Activity is currently centered on the US. Firms have raised US$165b for US-focused funds this year, up 45% from the same period a year ago. The Asia-Pacific region has seen a modest increase, with US$18.6b raised, up 11% from a year ago. After an active 216 that saw fundraising increase nearly 3% vs. the prior year, activity in Europe has declined, from US$76b last year, to US$38b raised through the first five months of 217. Dry powder Dry powder continues to climb. Buyout firms currently have nearly US$57b in capital available for new deals, far surpassing the US$478b they had at the former market peak in Including other fund types growth capital, real estate, infrastructure and others firms have more than US$1.5t available for investment.

However, five months in, there has been little indication that investors are slowing down. The secular trends driving capital into the asset class (new investors like high net worth (HNW) and family offices, and the need for pension funds to bridge their funding gaps) are winning out vs. the cyclical headwinds (slowing distributions). Blackstone announced a new fund targeting the infrastructure space, including a cornerstone commitment of US$2b from Saudi Arabia s Public Investment Fund. Blackstone has said it plans to raise an additional US$2b for the fund from other investors, which, with leverage, could give Blackstone approximately US$1b in purchasing power. The Trump Administration has repeatedly stated it intends to help invest more than US$1t in US infrastructure projects through a combination of direct funding, tax reform and publicprivate partnerships.

5 1.ii. Private equity: acquisitions Executive summary Acquisition activity remains strong, with firms announcing 565 deals valued at US$123.6b, up.6% from the same period a year ago. On a sector basis, technology remains active, though not at the levels seen last year. Consumer products and retail has seen an increase in activity this year, with deals accounting for 2% of aggregate PE investment, up from 1% last year. Add-ons have declined as increased competition and higher valuations extend deeper into the middle market. Current state Deal activity remains strong. PE firms announced 117 deals valued at US$27.2b in May, bringing the YTD total to 565 deals valued at US$123.6b, up.6% from the same period a year ago. On a sector basis, technology remains active, accounting for 17% of the capital invested. This is down from last year, however, when technology was 29% of capital invested. The consumer products and retail sector has been more active than last year, accounting for 2% of PE investment, up from 1% a year ago. Large deals in the space include Bain s acquisition of Diversey for US$3.2b; CDH s investment in Belle International for US$5.8b; and L Catterton s investment in Leslie s Poolmart for US$1.8b. In 214 and 215, add-ons were an attractive way for firms to put capital to work amid a high-price environment. Firms announced addon deals valued at US$26b in 215, which was a record. However, since then the pace of bolt-ons has decreased as increased competition for deals has extended well into the middle market, negating some of the lower multiples such deals have historically provided. deals.

LP Environment and horizon Investors at the annual Emerging Markets Private Equity Association (EMPEA) conference in Washington, DC in May discussed the growing importance of impact investing across the emerging markets. While smaller mid-market and growth capital funds have been active in impact investing for many years, recent months have seen large global players get involved as well. In late 216, TPG Growth launched the US$2b Rise Fund, which focuses on achieving social and environmental impact alongside financial returns. It followed Bain s entry into the impact market, with its Double Impact Fund. Participants noted that the industry is currently in the process of moving from a do no harm type mentality to actively doing good, and agreed that effective measurement of both financial and impact progress is the key to being able to do it consistently. Pricing levels continue to push higher. The latest data point comes from Epsilon Research and French investment firm Argos Soditic s Argos Mid-Market Index, which showed that multiples paid for European mid-market companies topped 8.6 times EBITDA in Q1 217, up 1.2% from the prior quarter. For PE acquisitions, multiples averaged 9.2x over the same period, the result of continued high levels of dry powder and increased competition for deals. The Argos Index defines a mid-market company as those valued between 15m and 5m. 5-Jun-17 Sponda Oyj $4.1 Real estate Blackstone Group LP 13-Mar-17 DH Corp. $3.4 Technology Vista Equity Partners LLC 24-May-17 Q-Park NV $3.3 Transportation KKR & Co.

6 1.iii. Private equity: exits Executive summary 217 has seen a rebound in exit activity, with PE firms announcing deals valued at US$146.6b, up 29% from the same period a year ago. Strength is evident across all routes trade sales, secondaries, and IPOs. Secondaries and IPOs are accounting for a larger proportion of the exit market. Current state May was an active month for PE exit activity, with firms announcing 94 deals valued at US$42.3b, a 41% increase over last year. Overall, 217 has seen a rebound in exit activity after a quiet year in 216. Firms have announced deals valued at US$146.6b, up 29% from last year, with activity increasing across all exit routes: Firms have announced 239 exits via trade sale valued at US$91.9b, up 21% from a year ago; exits via secondary buyouts are up 41% by value vs. a year ago, to US$39.7b across 133 deals; and PE-backed IPOs have increased markedly vs. last year, when global new issuance markets were largely closed on macro concerns and negative investor sentiment. PE firms have taken 49 companies public with an aggregate value of US$16.2b. While sales to strategic investors still account for the bulk of PE sales, their relative importance has declined this year as PE firms became more active in secondary sales and IPOs. Last YTD, sales to strategic investors accounted for 67% of total exited value; this year, such sales have accounted for 62% of total exit value. Sales via secondary and IPO have both increased as a percentage of exits.

Nonetheless, the bulk of companies acquired at the top of the last cycle have now been exited and cash returned to LPs. Thus, despite the uptick in exit activity this year, the top of the exit cycle has likely passed, and firms will continue to focus on deployment. Barring any exogenous shocks, IPO markets should remain active for the balance of the year. Strong investor sentiment and an IPO window that was closed for most of 216 has led to strong demand for current issues. A number of successful launches by high-profile companies in recent months is emboldening companies to enter the pipeline. $12 $1 $8 $6 $4 $2 $ Top PE IPOs YTD 217 Pricing date Company Sector Market value (US$b) Sponsor 31-Jan-17 Invitation Homes Inc.

7 2. M&A Executive summary May continued to exhibit the firm M&A market seen so far in 217, with US$247b of deals announced. US$1b US$1b deals are driving the current market, worth US$116b in this band announced in May 217. US acquisitions for European companies reach a record level of US$76b in 217 so far. The M&A outlook for 217 remains positive as companies look keen to conduct strategic reviews of their portfolio more frequently. Cross-border M&A should continue to increase further in 217. Current state The M&A market remained firm, with US$247b of deals announced in May 217, up 6% against April 217 and down 23% against May 216 (which was largely inflated due to the announcement of the Bayer-Monsanto deal). An interesting thing to note is that the month saw deals worth US$116b in the US$1b US$1b band, compared with US$114b deals in May 216 and US$14b in the same period of 215. In terms of volume, the month recorded 2,833 deals, compared with 2,522 deals recorded at the same time last year. US-based companies continued to drive cross-border deals, with US$17b in announced acquisitions so far this year. There has been a sharp increase in the announced acquisitions of European companies by US firms. 217 has seen US$76b worth of such deals, which is a recordhigh figure at this stage and up 61% on the same period last year. One of the major drivers of this trend is the relative strength of the dollar against pound and the euro, which has made foreign acquisitions more attractive for US companies. The merger between US-based chemical firm Huntsman Corp and European rival Swiss Clariant AG is the latest in a series of chemicals tieups as growth in parts of the industry has slowed. It is the latest example of the spate of big deals between the US and Europe. This all-stock transaction would create a chemical giant with approximately US$2b enterprise value. The month saw the largest deal of 217 worth US$34b, in which Italy's Atlantia S.p.A launched a cash-and-share offer for Spain's Abertis Infraestructuras S.A. The deal will create the world's biggest operator of toll roads, with 14,95km under its management. A tie-up with Abertis, which gets a third of its core earnings from France and has extensive operations in Latin America, would allow Atlantia to generate around 6% of core earnings outside its home turf, well ahead of a self-imposed 22 deadline. Environment and horizon M&A is expected to remain firm in the coming months as dealmakers continue to pursue growth opportunities and technological advantage amid ongoing disruption. Many of the head winds that affected M&A activity in 216 have subsided. New geopolitical complexities have emerged in 217 but we may be witnessing a new kind of M&A market, where these geopolitical concerns might not derail deals, unlike in previous cycles. Boardroom agendas continue to be dominated by growth demands and companies look set to retain their focus on expansion to tap into new areas of opportunity. Improving economic conditions underpin M&A activity. Cross-border dealmaking should continue to rise. Despite concerns about political risk and uncertainty, 217 has seen a substantial increase in cross-border deals. This indicates that companies are taking such challenges in today s hostile business environment in their stride and making moves they consider necessary to achieve growth. Cross-border M&A enables companies to buy into pockets of opportunity and secure supply chains. Technology and digital disruption remain the major drivers of the current M&A market. Unrelenting advances in technology and digitalization have led to disruption in business models and changing customer behaviors, making it imperative for executives to reassess and reinvent their portfolios continually, with an aim to future-proof them. Many companies are showing interest in acquiring technological capabilities, such as artificial intelligence and robotics that can help them survive and thrive in the digital world. M&A would continue to be dominated by other factors such as convergence across industries and sectors, and portfolio reorganization. Companies are more frequently conducting strategic reviews and looking for acquisitions outside their core sector to remain relevant in today s business environment. We should expect to see an uptick in divestments, as companies reorganize their portfolios and shift to new business models in order to invest in growth opportunities. 7 Top 1 announced deals by value, May 217.

9 3. IPOs Executive summary This month recorded the strongest year-to-date(ytd) IPO activity in terms of proceeds, witnessing a significant year-on-year (YOY) increase in terms of both number of IPOs and proceeds. Asia-Pacific accounted for 5 of the top 1 deals this month. Two of the top three IPOs this month listed on Korea exchange. IPO activity continues to be steady in the Americas and EMEA region, as the investment environment improves. Oil and gas is expected to be one of the most active sector in the US as the improvement in oil prices and a large backlog of IPO candidates are likely to encourage companies to enter the public markets. Current state May 217 saw 119 deals raising US$17.3b, registering a YOY increase of 53% and 92% in terms of number of IPOs and proceeds respectively. This month recorded the strongest IPO activity YTD in terms of proceeds, on the back of 4 of the top 1 deals so far this year. Asia-Pacific continued to lead global IPO activity, with 72 deals raising US$8.5b, accounting for 61% and 49% of the global number of IPOs and proceeds respectively. Compared with May 216, the region registered a 95% and 214% increase by number of IPOs and proceeds respectively. While Greater China region contributed the highest in terms of number of deals, South Korea led by proceeds due to listing of Netmarble Games Corp. (US$2.3b) and ING Life Insurance Korea Ltd (US$1.b). The activity was steady in EMEA, with 28 deals raising US$3.9b. While the number of IPOs increased by 4%, proceeds saw an uptick of 8%. IPO activity continues to strengthen in the US with 18 deals raising US$3.8b in May 217. YOY, this was 2% and 38% more in terms of number of deals and proceeds respectively. The top two deals (by proceeds) for this month were: Netmarble Games Corp. raised US$2.3b in the largest South Korean IPO since 21. It aims to use the proceeds for M&As and raise its ranking in key markets to reach its goal of becoming a global top five game firm by 22. Kinder Morgan Canada Ltd. raised US$1.3b in the largest oil and gas IPO in Canada since 214. It aims to use the proceeds to pay down the parent company s debt. Environment and horizon Asia-Pacific will continue to dominate global IPO activity, led by Greater China, South Korea and Australia. There are several big IPOs, such as Asia Innovations Group, China Tower and Putian, that are expected to hit the market later this year. The number of Chinese technology IPOs is expected to reach a record high in 217 as a result of the faster China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) IPO approval process. Also, companies are getting favorable valuations on the local exchanges and could save on the potential additional listing cost of a cross-border listing, which has resulted in an increase in technology IPOs on Chinese exchanges. According to CB Insights, China has a total of 46 private companies valued at more than US$1.b, the highest number outside the US. India is expected to have another strong year of IPO activity led by IPOs of former state-owned enterprises. The Government could raise close to US$3.b this year via IPOs. This is due to strong inflows in the market from both foreign and domestic investors, and relative outperformance of the Indian market compared with other emerging economies. The momentum will continue to build in the US IPO market, and we expect high levels of activity going forward. Apart from technology sector, the oil and gas sector is expected to be particularly active as the backlog has been building and oil prices have shown steady improvement, leading to more companies going for public listings. A majority of the IPOs in the backlog are related to oilfield services companies, and many of them are poised for significant growth over the next couple of years. We expect the demand for IPOs to remain strong this year in the UK after a steady start to 217. This is evident from the healthy pipeline of decent-sized companies, worth up to nearly US$35.b, looking to float. Investors seem to be supportive of the right companies coming to the market, which should strengthen confidence for issuers considering going public. In the Middle East, Egyptian authorities are in discussion with local and international investment banks to advise the Government on the IPOs of state-run companies. Their listing plans would broaden the ownership of companies and, as a result, bolster Egypt s capital markets and help the Government raise revenue. 9 Top 1 IPOs by proceeds, May 217 Issuer name Issuer location Sector Exchange Proceeds (US$m) Netmarble Games Corp.

10 4. Loans Executive summary Loan volume in May fell both in Europe and the US due to a decline in refinancing activities along with demand-supply imbalance. The European loan issuance has been inclining toward the US-style covenant-lite high-yield bond. Global market narrowed the demand-supply gap to surplus after a whopping $15.3b deficit in January. European repricing activity is dominated by issuers that participated at the onset of the repricing wave last year and are now jumping back for further reductions. The emergence of cov-lite loans has allowed the asset class to win back a lot of lost territory. Current state In May, US$3.2b of loans were issued in the US and 4.4b in Europe, taking the YTD global issuance to US$361b, up 163% from the same period in 216. Monthly volume fell in May, making it a low point in 217 for both regions as refinancing activity, which had been driving volumes from the beginning of the year, tailed off. Opportunistic deals, including refinancings and dividend recaps, have been contributing a bigger share in Europe (67%) than the US (51%) as per the new-issue volumes YTD. Both regions are driven by issuers as demand is way higher than supply. European loan issuance has been inclining towards US-style high-yield bond incurrence covenants instead of the typically more restrictive covenant package. In 217, the share of cov-lite volume in Europe (72%) has surpassed that of the US (7%), substantially up from last year in both regions. The loan market is finally narrowing the demand-supply gap to surplus after a whopping deficit in January, where demand exceeded supply by US$15.3b. The primary reason for the market shift is the dramatic dip in refinancing activity in May. In May, the repricing activity was bolstered by issuers that participated at the onset of the repricing wave last year and are now jumping back in as the deals soft coverage can be further extended. At the same time, 42% of repricings had undergone a price cut in 216. In China, syndicated interbank lending rates have become hurdles in the loan market, shutting out potential lenders and leaving borrowers facing higher interest costs. Meanwhile, Japanese lenders are showing greater interest in loans for overseas borrowers as they search for yield in a negative interest rate environment. Yields-to-maturity are at or near record lows for both regions. the average clearing yield for single-b rated term loans was unchanged in the US at 5.24%, and tightened to 4.% from 4.5% in Europe. Environment and horizon Europe's loan market is continuing to differentiate between credits within similar rating categories and command similarly differentiated pricing. The European Parliament s new securitization, simple, transparent and standardized (STS) framework and the possibility of unlocking up to 15b of additional funding for the economy is expected to boost collateralized loan obligation (CLO) volumes. M&A by US high-grade companies and many acquisition loans are ramping up after a sparse first quarter as corporations unwilling to wait for the Trump Administration s delayed tax, trade or health care reforms push the button on new deals. Opportunities The emergence of cov-lite loans has allowed the asset class to win back a lot of territory lost to the capital market, and the in-market trend of loan-for-bond trade is expected to reduce in Europe. With the nervousness around the French elections falling away, positive economic data and strong stock markets, European borrowers are planning to secure better terms before event-driven financings hit the market in coming months.

11 5. Bonds Executive summary Global high-yield activity rose on a monthly basis in May, with an increase in the US and a decline in Europe. Despite the monthly volume disappointments, good market conditions persisted due to strong demand. A slowdown in the European high-yield was expected, as many bankers had pushed their pipelines ahead in April, owing to the French elections. Clearing yields for single-b rated bonds tightened further both in the US and Europe. New European Central Bank guidelines for calculating leverage is providing opportunities for sponsors. Current state Global high-yield activity rose on a monthly basis after a short decline in April. High-yield issuance was US$24b in the US and 3.7 in Europe, taking the YTD total global issuance to US$162b, up 32% compared with the same period last year. Although the European high-yield bond issuance is experiencing spiked growth, as the YTD volumes are 84% ahead of the same period last year, the US market is only 22% ahead. The high-yield bond market was dominated by refinancings and recaps, with only 9% used for M&A in Europe and 21% in US YTD. In Europe, the market saw monthly volume disappointments, but good market conditions persisted due to strong demand. The slowdown in the European high-yield was expected, as many bankers had pushed their pipelines ahead in April owing to the French elections. Also, the latter half of May is usually slow due to the earnings season. Issuance was 88% for debt refinancing, making it the first month with no issuance for M&A or Leveraged Buyout (LBO) since January 216. Back on trend, the Nordic bond market showed a strong appetite for new issuance. Many sponsor-backed issuers are taking advantage of the market to refinance their portfolio companies. The middle market is observing mispricing of risk. Competition from banks, alongside pressure from sponsors and debt advisors, is driving up leverage and lowering pricing, while pushing funds into ever-higher risk positions in debt structures. Clearing yields for single-b rated bonds tightened in the US to 6.52% in the three months to the end of May from 6.57% at the end of April, and yields tightened to 5.14% from 5.2% in Europe, the lowest yield since the first quarter of 21. Environment and horizon Lack of supply along with strong demand is leading deals to issue at the tighter end of guidance at longer tenors and through syndication. The European Central Bank updated the guidelines for total debt calculation for leverage purposes. It now includes all committed debt drawn or undrawn plus Payment In-Kind (PIKs) loans, shareholder loans and facilities permitted by documentation. Opportunities New European Central Bank guidelines for excluding high-yield from total debt when calculating leverage is providing opportunities for sponsors desperate for leverage to deliver returns. Similar US guidelines are also under review currently. Issuance is expected to pick up soon, as companies with callable bonds can take advantage of record-tight yields. Reverse Yankees should continue to highlight as it continues to be cheaper to issue euros in Europe and as many sterling issuances can be expected ahead of the noise of Brexit negotiations.
