Wall street elders talk nostalgically about the days of private partnerships, before investment banks went public. BTG Pactual, a Brazilian investment bank that raised 3.7 billion reais ($1.9 billion Dollar) in an initial public offering (IPO) on April 24th, thinks it can have the best of both worlds. Although the IPO will enable some investors, like J.C. Flowers and Co, a private-equity firm, to cash out at a handsome profit, the bank's partners have less freedom.

华尔街的老人谈起早些年的投行，常流露出怀念之情：那些年，它们还没上市；那些年，它们还是私人合伙公司。巴西投行BTG认为它做到两全其美，同时从这两种公司形式中获益。4月24日，BTG成功上市（IPO），共募得37亿雷亚尔（19亿美元）。有的投资者，比方说私募基金J.C. Flowers and Co，在IPO中获益颇丰并功成身退。跟他们相比，BTG的合伙人们可就没法那么随心所欲了。
