I hope you and your family are keeping safe and staying healthy.

A few weeks ago, the U.S. Labor Department made a fairly significant change in its rules regarding 401K plans. Although this announcement didn’t get much press, we believe that it is an important revision because 401Ks are now allowed to invest their funds in private equity firms, opening them up to enjoy the significant returns that public pension funds have enjoyed for years. If you would like to learn more about this change, please use the following link:

Not only is this great news for millions of Americans who have their savings in 401Ks, it is also fantastic news for owners of privately held companies. As we have discussed before, private equity firms acquire hundreds of privately held companies each year. Now, with additional capital available to them, they will be even more aggressive in acquiring well-run businesses.

The key though will be effectively positioning your company as a viable investment opportunity to the most appropriate PE buyers.
