Gretchen Morgenson is the senior financial reporter for the NBC News Investigative Unit. A former stockbroker, she won the Pulitzer Prize in 2002 for her “trenchant and incisive” reporting on Wall Street. Previously at The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, she and coauthor Joshua Rosner have written a new book, These Are the Plunderers: How Private Equity Runs—and Wrecks—America .
In the 1902 State of the Union Address, Theodore Roosevelt said, “Our aim is not to do away with corporations; on the contrary, these big aggregations are an inventible development of modern industrialism. We are not hostile to them; we are merely determined that they shall be so handled as to subserve the public good.” What would President Roosevelt have to say about private equity’s recent interaction with healthcare?
As private equity firms invest in everything from dermatology practices to emergency room staffing companies, the impacts are not always obvious. Gretchen Morgenson’s new book, excellently researched and compiled, examines private equity influence in America. You will be surprised by the findings.
