Our investment strategy
We partner with leading private equity teams to invest in Single-Asset Continuation Vehicles or Co-investments in Europe and in the United States to build a portfolio of 12 to 15 companies.
We primarily focus on investments in the healthcare & education, data & software, and technology-enabled business services segments as we believe they are underpinned by positive structural market trends, balancing resilience and growth.
Our focus on small-mid market transactions as well as on Single-Asset Continuation Vehicles provides us with a differentiating angle in this high growth segment of alternative assets.
