How we compare
A different kind of partner for your business.
Traditional private equity is built around a fund clock. We are built around the business.
Traditional private equity
Why it matters to you
Ownership
Usually requires majority control
Flexible – full, majority, minority, or debt; you can keep meaningful equity
You decide how much of the company and its upside you keep. Liquidity doesn't mean selling 100%.
Investment hold
3-5 years, often dictated by the fund's life
No fixed timeline; we exit when it's right for the business and when timing and valuation align
We're never a forced seller. The hold period fits the business, which means value built to last and less disruption to your team.
Leverage
High, often 3-5x EBITDA
Conservative; only what the business can comfortably service
Less debt, less fragility. Cash funds growth instead of interest.
Source of returns
Maximum leverage and cost cutting
Operational growth, reinvestment, and multiple expansion
Returns come from building the business, not stripping it. Our interests and its health align.
Industry focus
Broad / opportunistic
Essential services only
You partner with people who know your sector and region.
