Backing management

People not businesses

A buyout is a key point in the life of a company and the careers of the people involved. It's a big decision requiring huge commitment and some personal risk; but the rewards can be high.

 

At Candover we back people, not businesses. We're looking for ambitious, entrepreneurial people whose vision of creating strong medium and long-term value matches our own.

 

We've earned a reputation for forming close partnerships with management. For many of our investee companies, the successful completion of a deal is just the start. Enabling the next phase of growth, be it geographic expansion or add-on acquisitions of new product lines is fundamental to what we do. We offer both follow-on funds, as well as experienced advice.

 

When the time is right – with full management support – we seek an exit that rewards all participants fully.
