They’re a fast growing business with over 250 across Europe and operate on a global scale. 

In particular they’re doing well as they are one of the few PE groups which can identify and successfully execute large carve out opportunities in international corporations and then turnaround the companies operationally. They also often win bids over other firms as the existing ownership can see their strong track record of improving companies and creating value rather than finance re-engineering to make the company ‘look good’.
