Unlike most other independent sponsors and/or private equity firms, we are not constrained by an LP driven, check-the-box mentality. We evaluate each opportunity on its own merit and how much of an impact our operating IP can and will have on the outcome; and most independent sponsors lack the reach and/or resources into which we have and continue to invest millions. Our distinct investment theses derive their merit from determining whether each discreet opportunity can leverage our operating and deal-related intellectual property to produce meaningfully better returns.
