Private equity refers to an investment into ownership of assets of private companies that are not listed on the stock exchange. In 2020, companies from the region of United Kingdom and Ireland received approximately 40 percent of the equity investment made in Europe that year. Central and Eastern European companies, on the other hand, received only one percent of the equity investment value.
