The value of Middle Eastern private equity deals slumped by 84 per cent to just $25 million in the first half of 2011 in comparison with the same period of 2010, according to the newly published Zephyr report on major capital deals. There were only seven private equity deals in the first half, the weakest result since 2007.
However, taken as a whole major regional capital deals held up well with a 54 per cent fall in volume to 222 transactions more than compensated by a 43 per cent increase in value to $10.2 billion.
