In today's episode, Integrity Square Founder Pete Moore dives into the roots and current landscape of private equity (PE) — and why it matters to literally 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 in the HALO sector. Ignore at your own peril.

• PE's Evolution: PE started when changes like the Prudent Man Act allowed institutions (think university endowments and pension funds) to invest in private companies. This ushered in a new era for higher-risk, higher-return investments.

• The PE Playbook: Early pioneers like Kohlberg, Kravitz & Roberts (KKR) built the model we see today: Acquire private companies, add layers of financing, optimize operations, make additional add-on acquisitions, and resell for higher multiples and strong returns over a 5-7 year hold period.

• PE’s Widespread Impact: For better or worse (more on that in future videos) private equity now owns major brands across industries (including popular gym chains and franchises in the HALO sector.) Their involvement accelerates change, competition, and operational improvement—if you’re in the industry, you’re either a target, a competitor, or a potential partner.
