Diabolisés par les uns, portés aux nues par les autres, les fonds d'investissement constituent de fait un rouage du financement de notre économie qu'il est devenu essentiel de bien comprendre, en particulier dans un contexte de fragilité de notre tissu économique. Si ce métier d'investisseur en capital se définit aisément – investir pour développer ou reprendre, c'est-à-dire accompagner des dirigeants et leurs projets sur le long terme –, la sophistication des outils qu'il utilise et le jargon dont il se pare le rendent parfois difficile à appréhender. En professionnels reconnus, les auteurs de cet ouvrage expliquent avec clarté leur pratique où se mêlent l'entrepreneuriat, la stratégie d'entreprise, le management et la finance. Ils montrent comment, en alternative aux marchés boursiers incertains et aux banques aujourd'hui si souvent frileuses, le capital-investissement (ou private equity) est devenu une source incontournable de financement et de développement des entreprises.

There is a divergence in the returns of top-performing firms and the rest of the economy, especially in industries that rely on a skilled labor force, raising concerns about their market power. This paper shows that the divergence is explained by the mismeasurement of intangible capital. Compared with other firms, star firms produce more per dollar of invested capital, have higher growth, innovation, and productivity and are not differentially affected by exogenous competitive shocks. Their pricing power supports their high intangible capital investment. Some exceptional firms may pose concerns due to their potential to foreclose competition in the future.
