Private Equity (redirected from Private equity investors)

Private Equity

When equity capital is made available to companies or investors, but not quoted on a stock market. The funds raised through private equity can be used to develop new products and technologies, to expand working capital, to make acquisitions, or to strengthen a company's balance sheet.

Notes:

The average individual investor will not have access to private equity because it requires a very large investment.
