  • Attractive Nuisances in Finance
    DRAFT - please do not cite or circulate Attractive Nuisances in Finance Sung Eun (Summer) Kim1 Abstract Private equity – or the business of pooling funds for investment in other businesses – is one of the largest, fastest-growing and crisis-resilient asset classes in finance. Much of this strength comes from private equity firms’ ability to operate efficiently by eliminating standard investor protections, such as the fiduciary duty of loyalty to investors and investors’ monitoring and voting rights. While this structure is a radical departure from the public company norm, no was harm done as these were private entities marketed exclusively to sophisticated investors and retail investors had little to no opportunity to invest in private equity—until recently. In the last few years, however, a number of private equity firms have gone public, opening the door to less sophisticated retail investors, who are drawn to these publicly-listed private equity firms because of the promise of high returns, despite their high risk. If private equity firms have thrived on their private nature, how will the public version of private equity maintain their competitiveness?
