Banks major conglomerates etc. 2) Now biggest businesses are tech and tech-led 3) In addition the traditional LBO model was not scalable - and the PE boys had major ambitions 4) They decided to add value by pulling the "quality" lever rather than plain old financial leverage. 5) The above are the reasons which I believe caused this shift.
