Investment thesis
New Mountain Capital pursues a 'defensive growth' investment philosophy across private equity, credit, and net lease strategies. Its private equity approach acquires high-quality leaders in carefully selected acyclical industries and then builds those businesses through operational growth rather than relying on leverage. The credit strategy applies the same defensive growth lens to corporate lending opportunities, while the net lease strategy acquires operationally critical real estate assets from sponsor-backed companies in defensive growth sectors. The firm emphasizes long-term value creation and business building in industries resistant to economic cycles.
