v • d • e
Private equity, in finance, is an asset class consisting of
equity securities in operating companies that are not
publicly traded on a stock exchange. Investments in private
equity most often involve either an investment of capital
into an operating company or the acquisition of an
operating company. Capital for private equity is raised
primarily from institutional investors. There is a wide
array of types and styles of private equity and the term
private equity has different connotations in different
countries.[1]

Among the most common investment strategies in private
equity include leveraged buyouts, venture capital, growth
capital, distressed investments and mezzanine capital. In a
typical leveraged buyout transaction, the private equity
firm buys majority control of an existing or mature firm.
This is distinct from a venture capital or growth capital
investment, in which the private equity firm typically
invests in young or emerging companies, and rarely obtain
majority control
