Private Equity > Overview
Quadrangle Capital Partners ("QCP") is a private equity strategy focused on the global media and communications industries. QCP looks to partner with superior management teams in companies where our experience, relationships and capital can help create long-term value. QCP has completed over 20 investments. Investors include a broad range of leading institutions, including public and private pension plans, financial institutions, funds of funds, endowments, foundations and a large number of current and former senior executives of leading media and communications companies.
We review opportunities across multiple media and communications sub-sectors, both in the United States and internationally, spanning the content and distribution areas. We look to invest $100 million to $250 million of equity in each transaction and to leverage QCP's significant experience and relationships. QCP seeks to generate superior returns through its disciplined investment approach, which focuses on sound businesses with superior management, minimal dependence on public capital markets, limited technology risk and defensible market position.
We want our portfolio companies to benefit from the firm's extensive experience and relationships. Our investment team has decades of collective experience focusing on companies in these subsectors, resulting in an extensive network of relationships with leading companies, executives and entrepreneurs and reiterating the team's advantages in sourcing and evaluating opportunities and managing investments from transaction inception to exit. The reach of QCP's network is also illustrated by the exclusive annual Foursquare conference hosted by Quadrangle since 2002.
