Réaction aux messages des "fans" de Dieudonné : ces personnes écoutent-elles réellement l’émission pour penser que ce répondeur peut-être une caisse de résonance à leur idéologie complotiste et nauséabonde ?

A leveraged buyout (LBO) is when a company or single asset (e.g., a real estate property) is purchased with a combination of equity and significant amounts of borrowed money, structured in such a way that the target's cash flows or assets are used as the collateral (or "leverage") to secure and repay the money borrowed to purchase the target-company/asset.

As a result, the debt effectively serves as a lever to increase returns-on-investment. LBOs are a very common occurrence in today's "Mergers and Acquisitions" (M&A) environment. The term LBO is usually employed when a financial sponsor acquires a company.
