The Changing World of Private Equity: Inside Permira’s Value Creation Team, With Operating Partner, Riccardo Basile.
Episode 33
Wednesday, 3 June, 2026

For the last 30 years, private equity has been an increasingly popular destination for both institutional and HNW capital. As its reach has extended across multiple industries and geographies, the questions over where value is actually created have been increasing. Riccardo Basile, a former engineer, then management consultant, and for the last decade with Permira, deconstructs what is mean by “value creation”. He explains the levers pulled and analysis used. Specifically, he addresses pricing, digital acceleration, organisational redesign, and commercial excellence in their portfolio companies, aimed at driving growth and performance. He discusses why companies partner with Permira, when managements might need to change, which industries are most fertile for their approach and their thinking around exits and uplifts, why, when, and how. ‍Newsletter | LinkedIn | YouTube
