Industry Expertise

Media

Our team has extensive experience as operators and investors in media. This experience spans more than four decades and numerous industry cycles. As a result of this experience, we benefit from a deep relationship network, which enables us to source proprietary investments. Our investment focus includes distribution, communications infrastructure, content, equipment and services. We are focused on finding value in sub-sectors that are undergoing actual or perceived dislocations caused by new technologies, changing consumer preferences and economic cycles. We also seek to invest in companies that will be direct or indirect beneficiaries of growing data, video and communications consumption.

Financial Services

We combine extensive operating experience with a deep relationship network to source proprietary investments and add value in financial services. The team focuses on asset and wealth management, insurance, capital markets, banking and finance sectors. We have successfully invested across cycles and seek to capitalize on market dislocations arising from periodic supply/demand imbalances. Ongoing regulatory and capital pressures are also creating opportunities across the sector, particularly for structured asset carve-outs and start-ups, where our team has a great deal of experience.

Industrials

Our team and senior advisors have a long history of operating and investing in industrial companies. We pursue industrial and industrial services businesses that we believe are well positioned to deliver growth rates in excess of cyclical trends due to their competitive advantages. We believe that the interconnected and dynamic global manufacturing environment creates significant opportunities for companies that stand to benefit from this fast changing industrial landscape. We have proven experience working with management teams to take advantage of these trends and to expand their businesses globally.

Responsible Investing

Our investment approach is focused on identifying attractive businesses, improving operations, driving growth through operating and strategic initiatives and positioning our companies as attractive targets for acquirers. We recognize the importance of environmental, public health, safety, transparency and social issues and the role that they play in the success of our investment strategy. We seek to manage and improve environmental, social and governance ("ESG") factors both in our diligence process as well as throughout the life of our investments. We believe this creates long-term value for both our investors and our communities.
