Equifin Capital Partners is a private equity firm dedicated to investing in the financial services sector. Equifin focuses on making privately-negotiated, structured investments in the consumer finance, commercial finance, capital asset management and related sectors of the large and diverse financial services industry.
The financial services sector represents a substantial portion of global economic activity and generates a consistent flow of investment opportunities due to increasing demand for financial services, rapid industry consolidation, changes in the structure and distribution of product, and a continuous occurrence of both growth capital needs and balance sheet "emergencies". Investing in financial services requires sector-specific knowledge and a clear investment strategy due to the sector's complex business models, cyclicality, regulated nature, challenging accounting and inherent leverage.
- Equifin's principals have had lead roles in transactions comprising over $1.5 billion in equity capital successfully invested in the industry since 1996
- Equifin's principals have invested in, operated, and financed companies in nearly every segment of the industry for over a decade
- Equifin's principals have deployed capital using a diverse array of investment strategies in the target market:
- Company and asset portfolio acquisitions
- Growth capital and M&A capital
- Corporate spin-outs and take-privates
- Turnarounds and workouts
Equifin is uniquely positioned to be the value-added capital partner of choice for entrepreneurial management teams who are seeking to grow their businesses. |
