Top Best Private Equity Quotes

Best Private Equity Quotes By N. Robert Hammer

Private equity helps produce strong companies, promotes innovation and spurs job growth. — N. Robert Hammer

Best Private Equity Quotes By Nathan Myhrvold

It's very hard for individual inventors to get paid. For the same reason that private equity is valuable - broadly, that's a good thing - in the case of patents, many that own them aren't in a good position to take the next step. — Nathan Myhrvold

Best Private Equity Quotes By Joseph Addison

I always rejoice when I see a tribunal filled with a man of an upright and inflexible temper, who in the execution of his country's laws can overcome all private fear, resentment, solicitation, and even pity it self. Whatever passion enters into a sentence or decision, so far will there be in it a tincture of injustice. In short, justice discards party, friendship, kindred, and is therefore always represented as blind, that we may suppose her thoughts are wholly intent on the equity of a cause, without being diverted or prejudiced by objects foreign to it. — Joseph Addison

Best Private Equity Quotes By David Bonderman

A good default, like Portugal or Greece, would be very good for the private equity business. — David Bonderman

Best Private Equity Quotes By Sebastian Pinera

Best Private Equity Quotes By Noel Clarke

Generally, an indie film in the U.K. is put together much like in the states. We got a tax credit. You sell the domestic rights, which can be quite low, but it's enough to push you over the line. And you get a tax credit on top of that, and then you cobble it together with private equity or gap financing and things like that. — Noel Clarke

Best Private Equity Quotes By Ziad K. Abdelnour

I strongly believe in the fact
that there's still plenty of money and plenty of private equity capital
available around the globe. What are in short supply are great entrepreneurs
and great teams. A trading opportunity or a company's biggest
challenge is and has always been the team behind it. There's enormous
change under way in every facet of the world. Some is technology
driven, some is market driven. All that change creates unprecedented
opportunity, but to take full advantage of such opportunities I mostly
focus on the team. The right teams and right people behind those
opportunities always win. There is no secret sauce. Trading and investing
has, in my experience, boiled down to building relationships and
exchanging value. It consists of striking the right balance between
backing and interacting with the right teams with the right business
model at the right time and with the right amount of money. — Ziad K. Abdelnour

Best Private Equity Quotes By Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Private equity has absolutely no reason to exist. The private equity holder has all the upside and the banks all the downside. — Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Best Private Equity Quotes By Romesh Wadhwani

For most Indians in America, wealth is not inherited. Neither do we make it as heads of large hedge funds and private equity funds. For us to make it to the top, we have to use our knowhow to create great new technology products and build high-tech companies. — Romesh Wadhwani

Best Private Equity Quotes By Matt Taibbi

Private equity firms aren't necessarily evil by definition. There are many stories of successful turnarounds fueled by private equity, often involving multiple floundering businesses that are rolled into a single entity, eliminating duplicative overhead. — Matt Taibbi

Best Private Equity Quotes By David Rubenstein

It's clear to me when you do private equity well, you're making companies more efficient and helping them grow and become more profitable. That success means our investors - such as public pension funds - benefit, which contributes to the economic wealth of society. — David Rubenstein

Best Private Equity Quotes By Stephen Pagliuca

I've probably done more venture capital deals and expansion financings than I have done private equity deals. But both are the same. Private equity companies have also built jobs. — Stephen Pagliuca

Best Private Equity Quotes By Alex Berenson

Big banks have long had private equity divisions that put up capital for deals too complex or risky for individual shareholders to finance. — Alex Berenson

Best Private Equity Quotes By David Rubenstein

People used to think that private equity was basically just a compensation scheme, but it is much more about making companies more efficient. — David Rubenstein

Best Private Equity Quotes By Warren Stephens

We've always been modestly leveraged, and we've never believed in a great deal of leverage on either our private equity business or on our investment banking business. And I think it really goes back to my uncle and dad growing up in the Depression and just seeing what happened to people who were overly levered. — Warren Stephens

Best Private Equity Quotes By Jamie Dimon

Banks don't want certain asset classes, and that's created opportunities for private equity, hedge funds, Silicon Valley. In this case I think he was referring to some of the European banks shedding assets, and the big buyers are probably not going to be big American banks. Someone like Blackstone may have a very good chance to buy those assets, leverage them, borrow up a little bit, and do something good there. — Jamie Dimon

Best Private Equity Quotes By Thomas G. Stemberg

The role of private equity as fiduciaries is certainly to make money. — Thomas G. Stemberg

Best Private Equity Quotes By Gerry Schwartz

Private equity does pay very well, and my counterparts, guys that I grew up with who are still working at a number of firms, all make a lot of money. — Gerry Schwartz

Best Private Equity Quotes By Michael Lewis

Wall Street, with its army of brokers, analysts, and advisers funneling trillions of dollars into mutual funds, hedge funds, and private equity funds, is an elaborate fraud. — Michael Lewis

Best Private Equity Quotes By Clayton Christensen

People in private equity complain that they have so much capital and so few places to invest. But you have lots of entrepreneurs trying to raise money at the low end and find that they can't get funding because of this mismatch. I think that there is an opportunity there. — Clayton Christensen

Private equity has been the purview of super wealthy individuals and institutions. — Michael Lee-Chin

Best Private Equity Quotes By Stephen Pagliuca

We really wake up every day trying to build businesses. That is the goal of private equity. It's a misnomer out there that private equity profits by shrinking companies. In fact, it's just the opposite. Private equity creates value by growing great companies. — Stephen Pagliuca

Best Private Equity Quotes By Blake Mycoskie

One thing I'm so grateful for is sidestepping the usual venture capital, private equity route. My friends who have gone that way are many times beholden to their boards of directors, to 'sell' ideas to a team. — Blake Mycoskie

Best Private Equity Quotes By Henry Kravis

In the '70s and '80s, what private equity did is it changed corporate America. It started holding companies accountable, and for the first time managers started thinking like owners. — Henry Kravis

Best Private Equity Quotes By Cato The Younger

By Liberty I understand the Power which every Man has over his own Actions, and his Right to enjoy the Fruits of his Labour, Art, and Industry, as far as by it he hurts not the Society, or any Members of it, by taking from any Member, or by hindering him from enjoying what he himself enjoys. The Fruits of a Man's honest Industry are the just Rewards of it, ascertained to him by natural and eternal Equity, as is his Title to use them in the Manner which he thinks fit: And thus, with the above Limitations, every Man is sole Lord and Arbitrer of his own private Actions and Property. — Cato The Younger
