PRIVEQ Capital Funds

Overview of the PRIVEQ Capital Funds program:

We formed PRIVEQ to respond to the absence of value-added equity in the $3 million to $7 million range. Investing on an equity or quasi-equity basis, we provide "tailor-made equity solutions" to profitable growing companies that require expansion, buy-out, or buy-in capital. We also invest in profitable companies that are experiencing financial challenges. Since its inception, PRIVEQ has become a market leader for private equity in this space. As an equity partner, we not only commit capital utilizing a highly expedited investment approach, but we also provide real value-added assistance post-investment to our portfolio companies. Our assistance and expertise further enhance a company's value to generate superior returns for all stakeholders.
