ALFI, LPEA and LuxCMA respond to the European Commission Consultation on Private Equity Exits

ALFI, LPEA and LuxCMA have responded to the European Commission’s targeted consultation on private equity exits. The response underlines the importance of preserving the long-term, negotiated and bespoke nature of private markets, while supporting measures that could improve liquidity, transparency and efficiency where appropriately designed.

The response highlights the need to reduce regulatory fragmentation, streamline cross-border processes, mobilise institutional capital and support more effective exit routes for private companies. It also welcomes the potential of intermittent trading platforms as a complementary tool, provided they remain optional, issuer-controlled and adapted to private market specificities. Additionally, it stresses that any EU initiative should be proportionate, carefully tested and designed to complement, not replace, existing private capital market structures.
