Investment Criteria

We Believe the Most Compelling
Opportunities are in the Middle Market.

We look to partner with market leaders with strong underlying demographics and robust demand drivers who can benefit from our deep sector experience and relationships. By leveraging our industry insights, we are able to identify opportunities for strategic and operational enhancements, rather than relying on financial engineering, to drive value for all stakeholders.
