THE RIGHT EQUITY PARTNER FOR ANY TRANSACTION

The FLC team distinguishes itself as one of the most experienced, active, and responsive private equity co-investment and co-sponsor partners in the world.

FLC is distinctive as an equity partner. We know how transactions work, with backgrounds in direct investing and an understanding that helping a sponsor’s transaction to close is the first priority. We are flexible, with an ability to get involved in a transaction process at any stage, move rapidly, and invest a broad range of industries and situations. We are commercial, reliable, and transparent – all hallmarks of a preferred co-investment partner.

Partnership

FLC does not view co-investment and co-sponsorship as transactional. We seek to develop long-term partnerships with private equity financial sponsors over multiple investments, which is why most sponsors choose to partner with us deal after deal.

Experience

FLC has one of the most experienced private equity co-investment teams in the world. Over 20 years, we have completed more than 100 co-investments with private equity sponsors around the globe.

Capital

FLC manages $3.4 billion in private equity commitments from some of the largest institutional investors in the world. FLC has a broad investment range and can consider equity investments from $20 million to as much as $100 million.

Criteria

A hallmark of FLC’s investment approach is flexibility. We invest with sponsors across industry sectors, geographies, investment strategies, and transactions sizes that range from less than $100 million to over $10 billion.

Industry Expertise

The FLC team has experience investing across every major industrial segment including consumer and retail, business and financial services, media and communications, software and technology, healthcare, energy, and other specialized sectors.

Execution

FLC customizes its process to help your transaction close. We leverage your due diligence and contribute our own insights. We can get involved at any point in the transaction process and can reach a commitment as rapidly as the transaction process requires, from several months to as quickly as a week2.

GTCR

David Donnini, Managing Director

In 1999 the FLC team made its first co-investment alongside GTCR, a leading private equity firm specializing in partnering with executives in its targeted industry verticals. Since that time the FLC team has invested over $100 million in GTCR transactions across multiple industry sectors, generating attractive returns. GTCR is an industry leader with their expertise and proven track record – hallmarks of a target FLC co-investment sponsor.
