Bush Quietly Started Private Equity Firm

“As other Republicans travel the country laying the groundwork for 2016 presidential campaigns, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is raising private-equity funds for oil and gas ventures,” Bloomberg reports.

“Bush, whose family made much of its fortune in Texas oil, has teamed with former… bankers to create an investment firm based in Coral Gables, Florida… Britton Hill was set up in May 2013 but Bush’s role as chairman and part owner wasn’t publicly available information until last month when the firm registered as an exempt adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.”
