BC Partners livening up the private-equity party

Amid a resurgence in private-equity deals, BC Partners has been among the most active, taking advantage of rivals that have been unwilling or unable to pull the trigger on deals. The London-based firm, one of the U.K.'s largest private-equity companies, was the second-most active buyout firm in the U.S. in the third quarter.

 Its investments in two big deals--which were valued at $10 billion--accounted for nearly a quarter of the $36.1 billion in private-equity acquisitions in that period, data provider Dealogic said. While $36.1 billion was the most in a quarter since the $57.4 billion recorded for third quarter of 2007, according to Dealogic, the increased dealmaking shows the growing divide between the handful of firms that have been jumping into the action, and the majority of private-equity firms that are either low on investable funds or exercising an abundance of caution.
