Private Equity

The EG Private Equity team looks to invest in small and mid-cap companies, anywhere in the world, which are exploiting new technologies (or new applications of existing technologies), and who have the potential to establish leadership positions in emerging sectors. The EGCA Group is open to multiple forms of investment, whether as a direct investor acting in partnership with leading global Private Equity, Venture Capital funds and Investment Banks, or through joint investment initiatives, participating via funds and secondary opportunities, or as principals in our own right. The EGCA Group invests in companies of all sizes, from $100m up to $2bn, for investment periods of up to three years, and where projected IRRs are expected to exceed 30%, and a cash-on-cash ratio of at least two times. The EGCA Group's focus is on industries which, in the EGCA Group’s view, offer the most promise. Presently, this translates into sectors such as Fintech, Biotech, as well as new businesses built around Big Data, businesses offering Software-As-Service (SaaS) models or Marketplaces. 

EG Capital Advisors UK Limited advises the Group’s private equity strategies.
