investment scheme that pools money from many investors to
purchase securities

scale in analyzing securities, managing portfolios and buying and
selling securities.

buying some of the stock of a firm, private equity players buy and
then manage entire firms.

rating of the debtor's ability to pay back the debt by making timely
