As the new year is well and truly underway, here at HotCopper we thought it pertinent to relaunch our educational Wiser Wealth series.

Listen to the HotCopper podcast for in-depth discussions and insights on all the biggest headlines from throughout the week. On Spotify, Apple, and more.

As the financial world gets more complex every year – more ETFs, more assets, more alternative investment pathways, more brokers, more financial advisors, more new product classes – it can be hard to keep up.

That’s where we come in, hoping to explain in an accessible format some of the most common questions we see on HotCopper and elsewhere.

This week, we’re starting with one big question that relates to the private world of investment – private equity.

What does it actually mean, what’s the industry looking like in 2026, and – how do investors make money from it?

Join the discussion: See what’s trending right now on HotCopper, Australia’s largest stock forum, and be part of the conversations that move the markets.
