Ep34 “Why Has Private Equity Grown So Much?” with Eric Zinterhofer

[@sammusariri5054]

A statement was made-that some managers would prefer taking equity over shares. Whats the difference?

[@jonnyfavela1011]

they mean the same thing. colloquially, we refer to public equity ownership stakes as shares, and “taking equity” as direct ownership illustrating how public shareholders are a degree removed from management and operation

[@jonnyfavela1011]

I will say however, in this case, he was referring to shares in a private company over equity in a public company for compensation reasons. public company management teams get paid in options, while private company management teams can sometimes participate in profit sharing

Good diversification strategy and intermediaries have found ways to engage smaller investors. IMO.
