Private company vs public company

A public company is a company whose shares are traded freely on a stock exchange. Public companies must meet reporting standards. This generally increases the amount of information about the company that is available to the public.

A private company is not listed on a stock exchange. They can have shares, but these are not publicly listed. Private companies do not have to meet reporting standards, so it is generally more difficult to find freely available information about a private company.
