Private equity is a term used to describe when a group of shareholders purchase pieces of a private company’s financial equity. It’s classified as a form of alternative investment. The shareholders will oversee the private company for a period of time and make improvements, before selling it. Investors will typically go for businesses that have become established, rather than newly started ones.
