Episode #79: Is Private Equity Out of Control?

The Private Equity industry is a lightly regulated industry with an increasingly mixed record on both financial returns and its impact on the quality of American jobs and businesses. How can it be shaped to be more of a force for good in Society and to avoid some of its worst tendencies and practices? Brendan Ballou, author of the book Plunder: Private Equity's Plan to Pillage America, offers an authoritative overview of the industry and a comprehensive approach to the reforms needed to shift the industry in a more positive societal impact—the nudges required to change the model not to eliminate it.
