Private equity funds control companies that represent trillions of dollars in assets, millions of employees, and the well-being of thousands of institutional investors and their beneficiaries. Even as the ruthlessness of some funds has made private equity a poster child for the harms of unfettered capitalism, many aspects of the industry remain opaque, hidden from the normal bounds of accountability.The Myth of Private Equity is a hard-hitting and meticulous exposé from an insider?s viewpoint. Jeffrey C. Hooke?a former private equity executive and investment banker with deep knowledge of the industry?examines the negative effects of private equity and the ways in which it has avoided scrutiny. He unravels the exaggerations that the industry has spun to its customers and the business media, scrutinizing its claims of lucrative investment returns and financial wizardry and showing the stark realities that are concealed by the funds? self-mythologizing and penchant for secrecy. Hooke details the flaws in private equity?s investment strategies, critically examines its day-to-day operations, and reveals the broad spectrum of its enablers. A bracing and essential read for both the financial profession and the broader public, this book pulls back the curtain on one of the most controversial areas of finance. 606 $aPrivate equity$zUnited States 606 $aFinance$zUnited States 610 $aJeff Hooke. 615 0$aPrivate equity 615 0$aFinance 676 $a332.6 700 $aHooke$b Jeffrey C.$0282481 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910554219203321 996 $aThe myth of private equity$92818752 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03628nam 2200589 450 001 996208493603316 005 20230213220502.0 010 $a1-118-66907-X 010 $a3-642-46416-5 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-642-46416-4 035 $a(CKB)3400000000103196 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000925272 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11538709 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000925272 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10879925 035 $a(PQKB)11155317 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-642-46416-4 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3090206 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6573512 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6573512 035 $a(OCoLC)647652932 035 $a(EXLCZ)993400000000103196 100 $a20211128d1980 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aMathematical modelling of estuarine physics $eproceedings of an international symposium held at the German Hydrographic Institute, Hamburg, August 24-26, 1978 /$fedited by J.
