Investment thesis
CVC2 invests its own capital off its balance sheet rather than a fund, emphasizing aligned interests, certainty of close, and long-term value creation. It offers flexibility across the capital structure β from senior and junior debt to preferred and common equity β and does not charge board or monitoring fees. Its strategies include backing emerging funds raising under $1B with support in future raises, co-investing alongside institutional and independent sponsors in both debt and equity, leading growth equity rounds for companies with a clear path to profitability, and buyouts of established market-leading businesses with minimum EBITDA of $2M.
