With a new Biden administration and recent threats to crack down on some of the biggest tech behemoths (from Facebook to Amazon), there seems to be support for more regulation. And according to alternative investment manager Hamilton Lane's CEO, Mario Giannini, that might be good news for the private equity industry.

"Reducing the dominance of large technology companies…is probably not great for some portions of the industry, but good for private equity," Giannini tells Fortune. In Congress, which now maintains a slim Democratic majority, "I think everyone is interested in saying, ‘Amazon is too powerful, Google [is too powerful],’ pick your name," he says, arguing there's bipartisan support for more regulation.

As to what lawmakers do about it, "I’m not sure," says Giannini, but "to the extent that they do anything to diminish the power of those companies, that's good for private equity because it creates opportunity for smaller companies."

To be sure, government scrutiny of large tech companies is a tale as old as time, but lately regulators appear to be turning up the heat on the biggest names: Facebook was recently hit with an antitrust lawsuit alleging it has squashed competition, while players like Amazon and Apple, big winners of the pandemic era, have found themselves the subject of government ire over antitrust concerns. Google, meanwhile, is in hot water once more for its search and search advertising practices. And companies like Facebook and Amazon could be facing their own headwinds in Europe, too.

According to Giannini, whose firm has $73 billion in assets under management and advises on $474 billion in additional assets, the dominance of those FAANG names has been top of mind for private equity firms when scouting for deals.

"Right now, when any private equity [firm] does a deal, …if it’s not their first question, it’s one of their top three questions: ‘Is Amazon going to enter this space, yes or no?’ And that has a huge impact—'Is Google in this space?’” he says.

It isn't just an issue in tech. Companies like Amazon are moving into health care, for instance, by launching online pharmacies. "If all of the sudden the government [would] say, ‘I’m not going to allow Amazon to encroach in certain areas,’ then I think for private equity, oddly enough, that becomes a net positive because you do then have an opportunity with other companies," says Giannini.

Though some on the Street argue the threat of sweeping legislative changes to hamper Big Tech's reach is still minor, the new (albeit slim) Democratic majority in Congress poses "a clear negative for Big Tech as…we would expect much more scrutiny and sharper teeth around FAANG names," Wedbush analyst Dan Ives wrote in a recent note.

For private investors, says Giannini, that just "creates different opportunity sets."
