No matter how much Bain Capital might stick out like a sore thumb between now and the 2012 elections, one thing is for certain: the PE firm has consistently been ahead of asset class trends, as evidenced by its trajectory through the 1980s right up until today. Unfortunately, Bain’s former leader has been turned by so many media outlets into its de facto poster boy for evil, the GOP and cut-rate taxes. Still—as was evidenced by reporting from Reuters earlier this week—Bain Capital knows how to stay ahead of the curve.
The private equity firm is once again keeping ahead by offering limited partners varying levels of exposure to its performance.Welcome to the online guide for do-it-yourself Ceramic tile.

Many limited partners (and, successful GPs) have said the industry is due for consolidation—by up to 40%, depending on whose estimate you’re willing to believe—and that regardless of how they restructure fees, some PE and VC shops are going away for good.
