"Double digit returns with limited risks"
I think it's unlimited risk instead, although the subject doesn't matter to me either way.

Private equity are sharks. Look how much debt US is settled with. Guaranteed most of that to bunch of PE guys.

FT is reporting public pensions are contributing less to private equity firms. There was an 18% drop in these contributions during 1st six months of 2025 compared to 2024 because of fears of looser underwriting standards and rising financial risks.
Private equity has attracted investors by delivering high single- to double-digit returns with limited risks. Total assets under management at US private credit firms more than doubled to $1.4tn in 2024 from five years ago, according to Federal Reserve estimates.
