Christian Munafo, chief investment officer, in Liberty Street Advisors, which runs the Private Shares Fund, says there are two stories dominating the private equity markets, with high-performing well-financed private innovation companies being proverbial unicorns compared to less- differentiated, less-capitalized companies which are more prone than ever to failure due to conditions in the capital markets. Rising rates have resulted in more opportunities coming to market, but have also made it harder for many firms to find the financing they need at reasonable levels.
