Distressed assets private equity refers to the practice of investing in companies or assets that are in financial distress, such as those in bankruptcy or receivership. Distressed assets private equity firms typically buy these assets at a discounted price, with the goal of turning them around and realizing a profit through restructuring, operational improvements, or a sale of the assets.

Distressed assets private equity firms typically focus on the following types of investments:

• Distressed debt: Investing in the debt of companies that are in financial distress, such as bonds or loans.
• Turnaround investments: Buying companies or assets that are underperforming but have the potential for improvement.
• Special situations: Investing in companies or assets that are undergoing special situations such as mergers, acquisitions, or divestitures.
• Distressed real estate: Investing in real estate properties or portfolios that are in distress, such as those in foreclosure or default.

Distressed assets private equity firms typically have a team of professionals with experience in distressed investing, including investment bankers, turnaround professionals, and operational experts. They may also work with other professionals, such as lawyers and accountants, to navigate the legal and financial complexities of distressed investing.

The investments in distressed assets are usually high-risk, high-return investments, and the private equity firms usually target a return on investment of 20% or more.
