From the Inside FlapPublicly held companies create many advantages for all shareholders, from individual investors to upper-level managers within a company. But the different financial objectives of each shareholder can easily become a problem. The answer to this dilemma is private equity in the form of leveraged buyouts (LBOs), managerial buyouts (MBOs), or something in between. Private equity can take many different forms, but for the purpose of this book it refers to the common stock of a corporation where that common stock is held by a relatively few investors and is not traded on any of the conventional stock markets.Private Equity: Transforming Public Stock to Create Value thoroughly explores private equity capital and its advantages–both financial and operational. Financial expert Harold Bierman Jr. takes an in-depth look at private equity and helps you gain a firm understanding of it from both a managerial and investment standpoint.
Through practical advice and detailed case studies of companies who have traveled this path–Metromedia, RJR Nabisco, Marietta Corp., and Owens Corning–this book arms you with a working knowledge of private equity. As an investor, you’ll learn how to increase your rate of return on investments without increasing your risk.
