Our focused, disciplined strategy makes us the partner of choice in the middle market.
Relationships come first. We invest behind management teams, with clearly aligned interests and commitment. A supportive, collegial, and transparent culture fuels our collective focus on accelerating results. And we believe in what we do - our team is the largest investor in Audax Private Equity, investing alongside our management partners with over $875 million of our capital committed to our current private equity fund.
Since 1999, we have been a leader in investing in, and scaling, middle market companies. For two decades, across more than 135 platform investments and over 925 add-on acquisitions, we have worked together to provide consistency and breadth of expertise. We have extensive resources and experience to accelerate growth and scale market leaders.
Our Buy & Build approach is the cornerstone of our model. We focus on equity investments in market-leading middle market companies that are poised for growth, then partner with management to drive value creation, build winning teams, and accelerate results. We contribute extensive capabilities and experience in organic revenue acceleration, operational improvements, and capital market efficiencies.
With over $6 billion invested, we are a leading private equity firm ranked in the top decile based on investment returns by the 2018 HEC-DowJones Private Equity Performance Ranking. We’ve maintained our original thesis, approach, and middle market focus while continuously growing our fund size. We are currently investing from our $3.5 billion Fund VI, the sixth in a series of successively larger funds.
