Key takeaways follow:
- Companies that "are doing well in their niche, but lack the skills to expand into new areas" are particularly attractive, according to Craig Bondy, a principal at GTCR Golder Rauner in Chicago.
- Tight money is encouraging the move toward middle-market investing, said Michael Delaney, managing partner of Court Square Capital Partners in New York.
- For Delaney, cyclical industries that were hard hit in the recession could be attractive investments.
