Five Signs Your Portco Isn’t Ready for an Exit

What this episode covers

A poorly managed exit process can erode value, and in the worst cases, a portfolio company that isn’t prepared to start that process can kill a deal. Tony Esposito, managing director of private equity and venture capital at Consero, and Josh Welk, founder and managing partner at Full Guard Capital, discuss the indicators that show a portfolio company isn’t ready for exit, the potential fallout from a lack of preparedness, then share their tips for what to do when you spot those signs. *** This episode is brought to you by Consero Global, a leading FaaS (Finance as a Service) provider.
