Public equity are stakes in publicly traded businesses that an average investor can purchase, such as a stock or similar equity placement. Public equity refers to any the stock of any publicly traded company- all S+P firms offer public equity. Private equity refers to the process of a hedge fund or private equity firm purchasing a business, revitalizing it, and then reselling it for a profit. Private equity deals occur between firms in large scale capital deals and are not accessible to most investors.
