Home Investments Team News Contact Us Investments The banking industry is large and complex, with constantly shifting regulatory and operational challenges. Our experience and ability to leverage key industry relationships allows us to source unique investment opportunities. We have a successful record of adding value to our community bank investments by providing guidance on a wide range of topics, including: business strategy, acquisitions and divestitures, commercial and consumer lending, credit administration and regulatory compliance. Our investment activity is specifically focused on banks – a sector in which we have broad experience and a history of success – and other financial services companies that could fit well in a bank. Targeted areas for investment include, but are not limited to: banks and other depository institutions, commercial finance companies, specialized consumer lenders and other financial service providers. We invest in a variety of opportunities, from healthy companies in need of growth equity to troubled banks that need to be recapitalized. We have the flexibility to make both control and non-control investments. Unlike most private equity funds, we are structured as a bank holding company and embrace serving as a source of strength for our investments.
