Private Equity Thinking

Private Equity Challenge		G3G commitment
PE firms typically run lean teams requiring trusted advisors in niche areas who have an appreciation for the Private Equity investment thesis.		G3G understand what drives Private Equity and are committed to remain focused on the underlying investment thesis. We are straight talking offering no-nonsense advice.
Operating partners frequently need quick informal advice on whether a problem can be solved and a rough price-point.		We offer easy engagement models with an open line to G3G board level advisors who can provide the appropriate answers within the time frame required (in our experience the time frame is usually “there and then”)
Private Equity firms must deliver an aggressive IRR on all investments.		We are very focused on delivering Rapid Return Investments well above the industry norm and will offer pragmatic solutions and alternative approaches to achieve the stated objectives.
Requests for capital expenditure, with incomplete or inconsistent information from the Portfolio company.		We understand how to structure a business case and help the Portfolio company to FOCUS on the specific issue. G3G will involve the right people and drive collaboration that will deliver the RIGHT decision making information and practical value creation solutions, not lengthy, incomplete and expensive programs.
