We invest our own capital alongside our partners.

CLAIRVEST EQUITY PARTNERS

In 2001, Clairvest launched its second private equity initiative, Clairvest Equity Partners (CEP), through a $219 million capital pool comprising $164 million from third-party investors and $55 million from Clairvest Group Inc. This moved Clairvest from a private equity firm that invested its own capital to generate returns to one that also invests the capital of third parties, primarily institutions and high-net-worth individuals.
Clairvest has invested the capital of CEP in nine companies.

We continue to apply our rigorous standards in identifying, qualifying and closing on new investment opportunities

CLAIRVEST EQUITY PARTNERS III

In 2006, Clairvest launched its third private equity investment initiative, Clairvest Equity Partners III (CEP III), through a $300 million capital pool consisting of $225 million from third-party investors and $75 million from Clairvest Group Inc. Clairvest invested in eight companies through CEP III.

We capitalize on our industry expertise and relationships to take advantage of an opportunistic investing environment.

CLAIRVEST EQUITY PARTNERS IV

In 2009, Clairvest began marketing its fourth private equity investment pool, Clairvest Equity Partners IV (CEP IV), which is comprised of a co-investment commitment from Clairvest Group Inc. of $125 million and $342 million in commitments from third-party investors. To date, CEP IV has made four investments.
