Step 1
Determine what kind of investment you are going to accept, in what market area the company will be involved. Private equity firms operate in activities such as bond and stock transactions. Many of them accept commodity futures, currency and various options strategies.
Step 2
Create your firm. It's pretty simple if you are the owner or operator. It is important to decide in which areas your clients will invest, and how to properly manage capital according to the chosen areas. If you are planning to embark on larger operations and also hire a staff of several employees, consider setting up the firm on a departmental line. Open departments that handle bonds, commodities, currencies, and departments for administration and investor affairs, with a senior staff member at the head of each.
Step 3
Think about the right type of legal entity. Most investment firms are organized as mini-corporations or limited liability companies. Check with your personal accountant on the most appropriate tax status. For example, if you chose the LLC form, then you will be subject to the corresponding tax.

Register with the governing bodies.
