Significant investments have been made in non-financial sector investment platforms. Historically, many of these investments were held in funds managed by third parties. Since the early 2000s, Power Corporation has been investing and developing its own investment platforms as described below. Since the launch of the first Sagard fund in 2002, Power Corporation has continued to build investment platforms that manage portfolios on behalf of the Corporation and third-party investors in several alternative asset classes in three principal geographies: North America, Europe and China. The investment platforms Sagard Holdings (Sagard Europe) and Power Sustainable Capital (Power Pacific and Power Energy), are managed locally by experienced investment professionals who have an in-depth knowledge of the local public and/or private markets and benefit from collaboration within the Power group of companies. Power Corporation’s investment platforms leverage its extensive global network and business relationships, seek to achieve long-term capital appreciation through fundamental investment analysis, and seek opportunities to acquire controlling interests in its most promising investments, where appropriate. Each of the investment platforms adheres to Power Corporation’s investment philosophy and governance model. The investment platforms manage and operate investment funds in which third-party investors, the Corporation and associated companies can participate. Sagard Holdings, a wholly owned subsidiary of Power Corporation, was founded in 2005 as a complement to the Corporation’s global investment holdings.
