The office takes selective positions in privately held operating businesses. Involvement ranges from patient minority capital to controlling ownership where the fit is right.
Private equity here is a direct discipline rather than a program of fund commitments. Each opportunity is considered on the merits of the underlying business, the alignment with existing operators, and the office's ability to add something beyond capital — governance, cross-border perspective, or continuity across generations. Terms are shaped to the situation rather than borrowed from a standard template.
Investments are made from the firm's own capital, not through commingled funds.
The office backs founders and management teams it is willing to stand alongside for the long haul.
Structure follows the business — not the other way round.
