We believe that the best way to create value is through an active, hands-on investment approach. Prior to making an investment, we will work with operating management to develop a company-specific growth plan and prioritize value-building initiatives, including organic growth plans, consolidation or buy and build strategies, and productivity/operating improvements. Once an investment is made, TBG and our Industry Partners will continue to work closely with operating management to assist in driving these value creation initiatives with the goal of building the company into a market leader.
The Industry Partner approach to investing is the foundation for our cohesive and integrated investment philosophy, creating value for small middle-market business owners. A successful Industry Partner strategy is based upon an open and active relationship with experienced operating executives, developed through many years of working together and investing successfully. The key advantages of building businesses alongside Industry Partners include:
Industry thesis development. Working closely with Industry Partners provides valuable insight throughout our thesis development as we complete an in-depth review of industry dynamics and investment opportunities.
Better access to information. Experienced Industry Partners have a network of industry contacts that provide practical knowledge of current industry trends and information regarding competition, risks and opportunities to assist operating management teams in building their businesses.
Operational experience. Through decades of experience, our Industry Partners can assist operating management teams in defining strategic opportunities, executing operational improvements and addressing management challenges to generate additional value.
Differentiation to operating management. Having access to Industry Partners with decades of relevant experience helps accelerate an operating management team’s ability to grow its business and execute on its strategy.
