To buy well, Nordic Capital proactively selects opportunities where we see the opportunity to apply our alpha focused strategy to create substantive value.
Nordic Capital benefits from a deeply rooted local presence to proactively build relationships with shareholders, boards and management teams as well as local banks and advisers.
We take a long-term approach to understanding potential investment opportunities - sometimes tracking a business for several years before acquisition.
The team of more than 60 investment advisory professionals tracks approximately 300 opportunities each year.
As a result, Nordic Capital is strongly placed to find attractive investment opportunities where there is little competitor overlap. 85% of our investments are sourced directly and are made outside competitive processes.
