BUILDING BUSINESSES

RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT

Building businesses to last

FULL potential

CapVest builds businesses. For over two decades, we have worked to help our portfolio companies reach their full potential. Our success is based on our deliberate approach to portfolio construction, our close relationships with our portfolio companies, and our own internal meritocracy.

Engaged Investing

CapVest runs a deliberately focused portfolio of companies. This allows us to be highly selective with our investment criteria. It also allows us to stay heavily engaged with our portfolio companies. We pride ourselves on our strong relationships with portfolio company management. Together, we work to build market-leading companies.

INTERNAL Meritocracy

Internally, CapVest has a proud history of meritocracy. We strive for a flat, open culture, in which every member of the team has the opportunity to provide input on the firm’s actions.

Sustainable Success

Our approach to responsible investment is a reflection of who we are as a firm. We believe that environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors can materially impact our portfolio companies. In order to be prepared for the future, our portfolio companies will need to not only contend with today’s ESG risks, but tomorrow’s ESG opportunities. We also believe that responsible investment is at its best when it is a collaborative process: not just internally at CapVest, but also with our portfolio companies. CapVest doesn’t just build businesses. We build businesses to last.
