Buy In / Buy Out Concept
The expression Buy In / Buy Out designates
a type of management that was very popular in the decade of 1980 and
consists in the purchase of companies by groups of managers who run
them, through loans from banks, taking the bank the company’s assets’
control as guarantee for the loans. The difference between buy-in and
buy-out lies in the origin of buyers: if these already belong to the
company that they are purchasing, it’s called buy-out; if on the
contrary, they are exterior to the company, it’s called buy-in.
