If you’re looking for insights into what Trump’s second term means for Washington, business, and the world, then look no further than the White House Watch newsletter. This newsletter is your guide to understanding the impact of Trump’s policies on various aspects of society. And the best part? You can unlock this valuable resource for free.

Donald Trump’s trade war has had a significant impact on the private equity industry, putting a damper on the expected dealmaking boom. According to projections from consultancy Bain & Company, the value of deals for buyout funds to purchase companies in the second quarter is expected to fall by 16% from the first three months of 2025. This decline is a stark contrast to the industry’s hopes for a resurgence under Trump’s second administration.

The uncertainty surrounding Trump’s trade and tax policies has made it challenging for private equity firms to assess assets and execute deals. Many sectors have been affected, leading to a slowdown in dealmaking across the board. The trade barriers imposed by Trump have narrowed the market, limiting the ability of sponsors to transact in tariff-resilient sectors.

The data also highlights the challenges facing the private equity industry, such as a lack of exits from portfolio companies and intense competition for capital. With fewer distributions to investors and difficulties deploying committed capital, firms are finding it increasingly challenging to raise money for new funds. This has led to a heightened imbalance in the alternative asset management sector, with new vehicles seeking three times the amount of capital available.

Despite the initial optimism at the beginning of the year, private equity firms are now focusing on “services-heavy” assets less impacted by trade barriers. With valuations upended by rising interest rates and borrowing costs, firms are exploring alternative exit strategies for their investments. Investors are expressing dissatisfaction with partial exits and are increasingly seeking conventional full exits of companies, even if it means selling at a lower valuation.

In conclusion, the private equity industry is facing challenges in the current economic climate, with Trump’s policies adding a layer of uncertainty to dealmaking. By staying informed through resources like the White House Watch newsletter, industry professionals can navigate these challenges and adapt to the changing landscape. Unlock the newsletter today and stay ahead of the curve.
