This case describes the recent boom in Brazil and recent developments in the private equity sector in that state. At the centre of the case is Dave Roux, associate of the technology-focused, private equity firm Silver Lake, who's examining whether to open an office in Brazil. His decision will depend on the value proposition of Silver Lake, and, ultimately, on the state of the Brazilian market, of the private equity sector.
Is the present boom in Brazil an indication of a structural change or is it a bubble? Is it too late for a private equity firm to really go to Brazil? Is the Brazilian market overly saturated? How do private equity firms add value in Brazil? What's the right entrance strategy for a private equity firm in Brazil? Should Silver Lake start an office in Brazil?
