In addition, PE firms can finance their investments with loans and participate in a leveraged buyout. When creating private equity, investors will raise capital to invest in private companies - either to facilitate mergers and acquisitions, to stabilize the company's balance sheet, to raise new working capital, or to drive new projects or developments.
