Private equity is a financial investment strategy wherein funds are raised from institutional investors, high-net-worth individuals, and corporations to acquire ownership stakes in privately held companies. Unlike publicly traded companies, private equity firms purchase non-publicly listed companies or take substantial ownership positions in them. The primary objective of private equity is to generate substantial returns on investments by actively managing and improving the acquired companies' performance. This involvement often includes implementing strategic changes, operational improvements, and optimizing financial structures to drive growth and enhance profitability. Private equity investments typically involve a longer investment horizon compared to traditional publicly traded stocks, with a focus on medium to long-term value creation. The investments are done during various stages of a company's lifecycle, such as startup, growth, or mature phases. These funds are essential drivers of growth and innovation, particularly for companies that may not have access to traditional public financing options or are seeking operational expertise and strategic guidance.
