Our Businesses
Dedicated to excellence across our entire organization
Through our proprietary sourcing and diligence processes we evaluate investment candidates over long periods of time, carefully gauging risk reward levers, while ensuring alignment of interests amongst all stakeholders. We solely pursue exclusive and proprietarily sourced transactions with amicably engaged counterparties seeking mutually beneficial results.
We invest in high quality businesses where we can help catalyze growth and transformation in key areas of value, driven by our strategic insight, operational support, and international relationships.
We acquire durable businesses, with successful operating histories and experienced management teams that have an articulated long-term vision for the future of their industries. We seek exposure to industries facing favorable operating environments with secular growth trends and companies which have built robust balance sheets and defensible business models.
