What is Private Equity?

Growing businesses, including startups and established entities raise capital for expansion and provide a great investment opportunity for your self-directed retirement account. Capital raised in exchange for an ownership share in a business is referred to as private equity. If significant growth is expected you may get to have all that growth completely tax-free using Roth retirement funds in a Solo 401k plan, QRP, or Checkbook IRA.

  • With a CheckBook Control Retirement Account you can identify opportunities not available through Wall Street and invest in those.
  • Small companies with growth potential present incredible opportunities.
  • Getting in at an early stage can make your investment grow manifold.

Companies may go through several rounds of funding as they seek angel, seed, and venture capital. Investing small amounts when funds are being raised from family and friends at the seed and angel stages can generate outsized returns.
