Private Equity

Private equity is an alternative investment class and consists of capital that is not listed on a public exchange

While private equity has garnered mainstream spotlight only in the last three decades, tactics used in the industry have been honed since the beginning of last century.

Private equity investment comes from institutional and accredited investors, who dedicate substantial sums of money for extended time periods.

The boom years for private equity occurred just before the financial crisis. Global private equity groups raised $2 trillion in the years 2006-2008
