private investment
Nonpublic financial stake
Private investment is capital deployed by individuals, firms, or funds rather than by governments or public markets.
It typically refers to money invested in companies not traded on stock exchanges: The startup attracted $50 million in private investment.
The term also describes spending on business assets like equipment and facilities, distinguished from public infrastructure spending.
In real estate, private investment means non-governmental funding for development projects.
