BACKGROUND

The number of private equity (PE) funds and the amount of capital deployed through private equity investing have grown dramatically over the last several decades. Some PE firms are buyout firms — they purchase controlling equity positions in (usually privately held) operating companies — while other PE firms make minority investments, either alongside other PE firms or on their own. In both cases, PE firms are typically granted significant controls and protections by the companies in which they invest.
