Private equity in the 2020s

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the 2020s private equity firms needed to respond to the COVID-19 recession. In the early 2020s private equity funding exploded.[1] Private equity firm Silver Lake was involved in the costly 2020 acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk.[2] The World Economic Forum suggested private equity would fund the post-recession revival of the economy.[3]
