They are the most well known private equity firm, but when I learned they are in the 40th place of how many assets they own and manage I was flabbergasted... Worth giving in some more time to understand what happened to the financial world in the past 25-30 years. https://www.visualcapitalist.com/worlds-50-largest-private-equity-firms/ . Personally I can't wrap my head around how much money this ultra rich club has.
