Almost everything we consume has been touched by private equity at some point in the value chain. Despite that, very few people even know what private equity is. In this essay, I criticize the magic sauce that private equity firms use to create “value”.
First, I talk about how this magic sauce - on dubious grounds - transfers wealth from investors, such as our pension funds, into the pockets of a few private equity partners.
Second, I talk about how private equity makes portfolio companies focus more on financial engineering and consumer exploitation, and less on actually improving their products and services.
Third, I talk about how private equity seeks to reduce market competition, right under the nose of our competition regulators.
