The trend toward extended private ownership reflects evolving financial landscapes, strategic priorities, and investor preferences. While it brings advantages—such as privacy, flexibility, and access to private capital—it also limits public participation, alters market dynamics, and shapes the investment landscape.

By doing so, they can foster innovation, economic growth, and equitable wealth distribution in the ever-changing corporate universe.
