BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Charlesbank Capital Partners (“Charlesbank”), a middle-market private investment firm, is pleased to announce that it has been included on GrowthCap’s “Top Private Equity Firms of 2024” list.
This annual list evaluated Charlesbank alongside hundreds of accomplished and respected private equity firms in the U.S. and internationally. According to GrowthCap, awardees were selected based on a range of factors including a firm’s capabilities beyond financial capital, such as portfolio company value creation, firm growth and track record, and commitment to responsible investing, among other factors.
“We are honored to be recognized by GrowthCap as a top private equity firm for our 26-year track record growing and scaling companies across the middle market,” said Michael Choe, CEO and Managing Director at Charlesbank. “This recognition is a testament to our team and the long-standing relationships we’ve built with founders and CEOs over the years.”
In 1998, Charlesbank spun out of an investment portfolio directly from the Harvard University endowment, and since that time, has raised over $18B of investor capital. The firm has three separate but synergistic strategies focused on the US middle market: flagship private equity, technology opportunities and opportunistic credit. Across each of these strategies, Charlesbank’s historical performance has been driven by fundamentals-focused investing and a relative value approach that helps the firm identify the most compelling opportunities in its core sectors: business and consumer services, healthcare, industrial, and technology and technology infrastructure. With its robust industry knowledge and operational resources, the firm helps proven management teams accelerate growth, with a particular focus on founder-led companies, corporate carve-outs, transformational opportunities and M&A platforms.
