AB  - The Relative Performances of Large Buyout Fund Groups Jeffrey Hooke Ken Yook The Relative Performances of Large Buyout Fund Groups , published in the Winter 2016 issue of The Journal of Private Equity , shows that the buyout funds managed by the world’s largest private equity houses did not deliver top quartile results in the period 1994–2007. Authors Jeffrey Hooke and Ken Yook of John Hopkins Carey Business School conclude that average returns were only slightly above the median and that, as a group, these funds did not significantly outperform those run by smaller firms.TOPICS: Private equity, performance measurement, portfolio construction
