We invest through the following types of operations:

• management buy-outs : transactions with existing management teams
• management buy-ins: transactions with a new management team
• BIMBO (buy in management buy out): transactions combining both existing and incoming managers

Companies in which we invest are small to medium sized privately or publicly held companies (as well as subsidiaries of larger corporations) that generally have annual revenues of between EUR 20 and EUR 400 million.

We have no predetermined sectorial allocation of funds but companies in which we invest must have a strong market position and development potential. We prefer to create value trough growth rather than financial leverage.

Funds advised by Argos Soditic seek majority or influential minority equity positions ranging from EUR 5 million to EUR 30 million. We systematically partner up with management teams in our transactions.

To date, Argos Soditic has led all its investments, allowing a greater degree of control in conducting due diligence, negotiating, pricing and structuring investments.
