GMP/Creating Value with Owner-Operators facing Transition
Home Contact Us Sitemap
Company Overview At A Glance Investment Philosophy Investment Parameters Our Team Portfolio Companies

What we ARE:

  • A unique combination of proven owner/operators, financial advisors and investors, employing “hands on” leadership, considerable transaction experience and private equity capital to increase and realize shareholder value.
  • We partner with management (and source management when required) to close “the gaps” that prevent or limit growth, through clearer strategic vision, more effective operating plans, new talent and/or additional capital.
  • Our strength is in working with established businesses to refocus strategy and realign operations to accommodate changed circumstances – family ownership/transition issues, increased competitive industry pressures, and/or financial capacity constraints.
  • GMP co-invests with management in every business investment made and plays an active role, typically at the board of directors' level.

What we are NOT:

  • A traditional advisory firm without capital.
  • A traditional private equity firm staffed only with "deal" professionals.
  • Focused on individual businesses which do not leverage our experience.
  • Interested in start-up companies, high technology or those companies which are highly capital intensive.
