About this listen

 Private equity is a $4.7 trillion global industry investing in non-public assets, often through buyouts funded by investor capital and loans. Firms structure as Delaware partnerships, raise money by investing their own funds, and earn fees and a share of profits. They target companies for operational improvements or cost-cutting, then sell at a profit. Tax advantages and high compensation drive its appeal, but its impact on industries and jobs is controversial.
