Its simple. When we purchase a company or assets we are investing in the people that have shaped the business and contributed to its current success. We prefer to keep existing management in place as owner-operators and shareholders. We align ourselves early on through strategy development long term planning and economic incentives. We offer all of our managers the opportunity for a meaningful stake going forward thereby ensuring motivation and rewarding success. We also require our investment team members to be heavily invested in the firms funds further solidifying our commitment to our investors and our managers.
We work on strategy and creating value even before the deal closes. Our team offers guidance and assists management with financial and operational challenges while proactively monitoring performance and the investment cycle. We invest our financial and human capital alongside committed teams with the ultimate goal of funding growth and generating incremental equity value for our investors.
