What REALLY is Private Equity? What do Private Equity Firms ACTUALLY do?

Deep

Many in this comments either understand or are ignorant of the predatory nature of a PE

Just saw a post earlier about how Subway was bought off by a private equity firm. Thanks for sharing.

CON ARTIST dressed as a business man Aka THOMAS BALASHEV from MONTAGUE REAL ESTATE/ PROPERTY/ MONTA CAPITAL/ and many other so called company names. Thomas Balashev has conned me and others of their lifesaving’s, pensions with a bond attached to a so called company named HIGH STREET GROUP AKA GARRY FORREST he promoted a UNregulated investment to me. Thomas marketed highly misleading information stressing non existing security went hand in hand with their scam. This is illegal under the Financial Services and Marketing Act (FSMA). IF you are a prospect, Thomas and his so called professional team will pressurise you and call you on a regular basis to sell you whatever he is selling. Thomas will go on any level to get a good image from Interviews, companies magazines podcasts etc anything to make him Look legit and inject trust in his victims. DO NOT INVEST THEY ARE NOT REGULATED HE WILL do anything to gain your TRUST If you don’t believe me, question him about his HIGH STREET GROUP investors money OR if he is REGULATED by the financial conduct authority (FCA) ASK HIM HOW INVESTORS MONEYS ARE PROTECTED? Thomas And his so called professional team will Tell you they are protected against the asset/project but once he gets your money you have lost all power access to it and it will Take only time to understand that it’s a Ponzi scheme. IT IS NOT REGULATED AND HE DIDNT TELL YOU THIS. Thomas will Tell you excuses, lies and complicated financial jargon to shut you up. He will block and ignore you. Don’t fall for his fake promises of high returns backed up by securities. Thomas has got his wife and friends to write fake reviews to reassure you to trust and invest with him, do not fall for this trap. Thomas is living the high life in Hadley wood with other peoples life savings AVOID HIS SERVICES AT ALL COSTS !!!!!!!!!! MONTAGUE PROPERTY/ REAL ESTATE AKA MONTA CAPITAL !!!

This is why Back Yard Burgers went out of business. It's bad news

The greater the passive income you can build, the freer you will become. Taking the first step is the hardest, but 5 houses later living off passive income since July 6, 2016. You’ve got to start taking steps to achieve your goal.

They are to the economy as a mosquito is to the human body.

TLDR: A fraud. For the technically inclined, rent extraction.

There are lots of mixed opinions about stocks and there projection in the next coming years, I aim for short term solid gains from market correction and I'd definitely jump on the boat if I knew a thing or two about day-trading, but then again what do I really know? I'm just looking for the right moves to grow and hedge my stagnant reserve of $370k from inflation.

Not a very detailed explanation in regards to who the investors are or the true damage these groups are doing to the economy. It's just another way to keep moving money to the top with absolutely no conscience of results to humans. Homelessness and all the deprived humans working for unlivable wages is the actual result. No sympathy from me for wealthy non tax paying greedy people.

They are corporate vultures with a simple name.

What is the product of a private equity firm?

Nobody can become financially successful over night. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part. Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking bold steps we need in other to reach our goals..

It conducts asset stripping very simple

It's time to call a spade a spade. PE is plundering America. And we've developed euphemism after euphemism to couch what they're doing. Just think: For one single moment do you think experience means nothing in running an oil company, retail chain, health care operation, auto parts distributor? In other words, do you think evaluating a P&L and balance sheet is an adequate surrogate for running a company? PE can't evaluate the business outside the balance sheet because they don't know the business, nor do they have an interest. They follow the same plan: Pile on debt. Pay themselves millions in "management" fees. Pull out the initial investment. Cut costs radically. Buildings fall apart. Customer service plummets. Invade pensions. Health care. Slash head count. Profits soar. Sell real estate. (To other pirates!) Strip them naked. Flip. Rinse and repeat. PE, 5 years out (2.5 years after they've sold) bankrupts at 10X the average. PE is BAD for America. Warren Buffet, the most successful investor of our time, calls them dishonest frauds. Just getting out of college? You'll make a fortune. Just check your integrity at the door.

Private equity destroyed many establishes British high street shops. It seems a parasitic way of doing business. Staff end up getting sacked which tax payers need to pay benefits to. The business might be left with unpaid debt that others then have to deal with when the private equity vultures have left. The business is then left bankrupt.

super helpful!

No doubts , A good way of growing and saving your money is through investing . You don't need to have much before you can invest. "That little money you have now can make you millions if you invest it wisely". I wasnt financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my second house already, earn on a monthly through passive income and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing is a grand choice I made

How about the private equity firm employees or wtf they are called do the actual work, labor, jobs of the companies that they acquire >50% ownership in, support unions of those workers, etc and then - only after all that - at the end - if they make a profit - exit.

I’m here cause of Succession 💰👨🏽‍💼

What happened to toys r us wasn’t growth…it died because it was forced to pay billions of dollars in debt.

Nicely presented.. Good to understand for those who are new to the finance industry. Thank you

Very helpful 👍 👌 😀

I'd like to work with or for a PE firm, if anyone is hiring. I'm currently a series 7/66 holder and have over 10 yrs experience in sales, business development, leadership/team management, and training. I love to learn, I'm interested in business and I am no stranger to hard work or long hours. Driven by purpose and a passion to serve others, but candidly...I also want to make a lot of money LOL

Synergy.

What my partners and I do, is we own assets in a holding company which is the parent company to all of our ventures. Big rule of thumb in this business is GET PEOPLE WITH MONEY WHO YOU CAN TRUST. Then you work together on purchasing business', obtaining assets such as real estate, and/or help start business' through venture capital investments.

Great video. I'm a self-made High networth 34 years in NYC/NNJ currently working on my first fund. Can anyone help me on eliminating the risk from a debt fund, and its raised capital through proper instruments?

Need to dumb it down more lol

Nope…. It didn’t teach me anything except stay off this channel lol

Perfectly explained

About to start working for one, this does give a clearer understanding on how a PE fund operate. Thanks!

After the startups become succesful can they stop giving shares to private equity?

Why are capital investment made into companies not publicly traded?

So it takes 7 and a half minutes to say they're stockbrokers?

You should really use basic simple everyday words because someone new will watch the video and learn nothing and not come back . And maybe use an example even if its not a real example . For instance you could explain it like —- this rich person decided to become a private Investor and he put money into struggling store called starbucks stocks then the stock went up and he sold it for higher price. It then got re named and became this new store called_______. And then he invested that money into this bank called ect….. give a basic story line of stuff and companies we know . The average dude don’t know words like hedge fun, equity , firm , and all that stuff . Bruh i have no idea what you said zero . These words are used to keep the majority of people clueless about rich folks getting away with everything , not paying taxes no jail time , hiding behind names like private equity firm investor , and these unknown entities that own biggest stocks in all major companies . Google it now . Who owns the top 5 stocks in ________, Put any company you want . The top 3 stock holders will always pop up any every company , apple amazon walmart coke disney the whole fucking world . Who are these ppl entities , the 3 are Vanguard, BlackRock and forgot the 3rd one . who are they? Any company do it now . Type who owns the top 5 stocks in Amazon. Or any company

Great explanation. Thank you.
I would like to know what skills are needed to own a private equity firm.
