Mastering Private Equity Set

Review Mastering Private Equity Set

by CLAUDIA ZEISBERGER, MICHAEL PRAHL, & BOWEN WHITE

Description

With the 1st Edition Set containing two distinct books, “Mastering Private Equity” covers everything about private equity and its place in the market in a detailed and organized manner. From its origins in history, its evolution to the modern era, how it works, and how to benefit from it, “Mastering Private Equity” is sure to answer most (if not all) questions one would have about the subject matter. In the form of two books titled “Mastering Private Equity” and “Private Equity in Action,” these advanced set of books both cover different perspectives of private equity — each divided and categorized. “Mastering Private Equity” lays the groundwork up for anyone wanting to take an extensive look into the subject matter.
