PE investors dismiss valuation chatter as ‘noise’

Despite declining valuations in private equity, Schroders Capital's European private equity chief Richard Damming remains confident, dismissing concerns as mere industry "noise".

In the face of fluctuating private equity valuations, Damming reassures that they remain undeterred. "You sell a company at the price you want to sell it for, and otherwise you don't sell it," says the head of Schroders' European PE branch.
