Private Equity is woven into our everyday lives...

And is characterized by:

  • Long-Term Investment Horizons - Private companies don't have to manage to a quarterly earnings number, allowing them to make investments in their business to help drive long-term growth.
  • Active Ownership and Management - Focus is on creating value through improving operations, entering new markets and adding new products.
  • High Growth Potential - During the 25 years from 1980 to 2005, the top-quartile private equity firms generated annualized returns to investors of 39.1% (net of all fees and expenses). By contrast, the S&P 500 returned 12.3% a year during the same period.
