Private equity may be the next frontier for the exchange-traded-fund industry, thirty years after the first U.S.-listed ETF was launched, according to Sue Thompson, head of Americas distribution for SPDR ETFs at State Street Global Advisors.
The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust, which trades under the ticker SPY, was launched in January 1993 and sparked the creation of the ETF market in the U.S. The fund SPY became a trading tool for sophisticated institutional investors as well as a way for individual investors to gain broad exposure to the U.S. stock market.
Private-equity firms raise funds to buy companies and aim to sell those businesses, or take them public, at a profit down the road. The industry is known for leveraged buyouts of companies, deals that are financed partly with debt, although firms may also provide growth equity to businesses.
