What is private equity?
Private equity is a term used to describe equity investments made in companies whose shares are not traded on open stock markets. These investments often fall into two main categories, separated by stage: venture capital, which includes seed, early-stage, and expansion investment strategies, and corporate finance, which includes growth, buyout, add-ons, consolidations, and restructuring strategies.
A Broader Collection Of Private Equity Opportunities
Increasing Returns
Early-stage investing enables potential enterprises to grow quickly and gives investors more control and influence over their investments.
A Mature Market
Because of the depth of the private markets, more companies are choosing to remain private as they grow, eschewing the higher control, increased disclosures, and increased scrutiny that come with the traditional path of becoming public on the stock market.
Increased opportunities
Private equity, as opposed to public markets, can offer access to a greater variety of options, such as early-stage exposure to emerging companies.
