The Private Equity Lifecycle
Take the case analysis that you have already prepared for the class
and submit it in a typewritten format
Review the questions on LEARN associated with the case to ensure
you have covered them off
However, the style of the presentation should follow a traditional case
write-up, written from the point of view of the decision maker to his/her
boss (do not just answer the questions!)
Remember to complete any numeric or financial analysis required
by the case
Hand in a hard copy of your assignment prior to the start of class,
PLUS submit it electronically on LEARN (to be reviewed by Turnitin)
