The Business of Private Schools
Universities are becoming known as “real estate companies that happen to be in the education business.” Are private high schools on the same path?

Investing in private equity offers investors the opportunity to participate in the growth and success of private companies, typically not available through public markets.
Private equity involves investing in companies that are not publicly traded, often at different stages of their development, with the aim of generating significant returns over the long term. Private equity investments can take various forms, such as venture capital, growth equity, or buyouts.
These investments are typically made by private equity firms or institutional investors. Private equity investors often bring more than just capital to the table; they also provide strategic guidance, operational expertise, and industry connections to help the invested companies thrive.
This hands-on approach distinguishes private equity from other investment vehicles. However, it’s important to note that private equity investments tend to have a longer investment horizon, with limited liquidity compared to public markets.
Thorough due diligence, evaluating the track record and expertise of the private equity firm, and understanding the investment thesis and exit strategy are crucial when considering private equity investments. When successful, private equity investments can deliver substantial returns, but they also come with higher risk levels.
It is important for investors to have a long-term perspective and a well-diversified portfolio when considering private equity as an investment avenue.
