Private equity is increasingly being recognized as a key source of funding for companies. In the US, private markets control over 25 per cent of the economy by the volume of capital and 98 per cent by the number of companies. This makes it imperative for businesses to understand how private equity works. Private equity firms seek to improve the performance of an acquired asset. Private equity investors might channel their funds into a potentially distressed or stagnant business that still shows growth potential.
A key benefit of bringing a private equity investor on board is that your company will access more than simple cash. You will also likely get that investor’s expertise and guidance if they are experienced in your industry or niche.
