Investment Strategy

Oakley Capital Private Equity generally invests in situations outside of those which appeal to the mainstream private equity community. Our deals are often particularly challenging or complex and are therefore unlikely to appeal to mainstream investors.

Our deals will include the following:

  • Challenging or complex management buyouts and buy-ins
  • Public to private transactions
  • Operational turnarounds and financial restructurings
  • Secondary buyouts
  • Later stage development capital

We look for businesses where our team can make a difference. Our senior team members include proven business leaders who have successfully run, transformed and grown businesses themselves.

We are relatively sector agnostic but typically invest in sectors that are growing and / or consolidating and we have invested across a wide range of sectors to date.

We are used to executing deals in relatively short and demanding timescales, where the circumstances of the business or the situation demand it.

Our targeted investment size is from £5million to £60million. We seek to take controlling equity positions, but can also invest in other parts of the capital structure, including mezzanine and senior debt in support of equity led transactions.
