Amount / money used to get an additional income is known as " investment ". For Example amount invested in assets,securities,postal schemes,bonds,treasury bills,mutual funds,band deposits etc

Private equity is self explanatory word where some part of the equity is invested by the company/individuals/firms etc to have a control in the management or to start a new venture / joint venture but the private equity investment is very high investment in nature .

Investment for a lay man is the money invested in certain investment vehecles like Fixed deposites in the banks or companies,Scurities,Mutual Funds,Bonds etc.with a view to earn returns at a pre determined rate during a pre determined period.

Private Equity is the vehecle used by investors to park money in the form of equities in private companies.

Both investments have risk and reward potential.

I would like to take the Investment Part of ur question and wud like to be a little more specific as to what it means

 

Investment means putting up a sum of money in a particular venture, asset etc for a specifed period ,in order to expect some return with some return attached.

Hence following are the features of an investment to be qualified as an investment

 1. Done with a view to earn return.

2.Has the risk attached.

3.Done for a future time and the time is generally known

 

Does it make the understanding crisp folks ??

investment is common word for both investment in assets and liability ......saving,planing,earing,studying and then spending money for a specific cause which would be known as property in future is investment...

Investment is a term with several closely-related meanings in business management, finance and economics, related to saving or deferring consumption. An asset is usually purchased, or equivalently a deposit is made in a bank, in hopes of getting a future return or interest from it. Literally, the word means the "action of putting something in to somewhere else" (perhaps originally related to a person's garment or 'vestment').


A private equity investment vehicle is an instrument for enabling pooled investments by a number of investors in equity and equity-related securities in private companies. The vehicle can take the form either of a company or of a similar arrangement such as a limited partnership, or, as in some countries, an investment fund. The management of the vehicle can either be conducted by the vehicle itself or, as is increasingly common, by a separate management company or manager providing services to the vehicle.
