Challenges Family Offices Face
Investing in the lower middle market brings distinct risks. We help family offices overcome these structural and operational obstacles with data-driven sourcing, operator preparation, and ongoing visibility.
Difficulty identifying and vetting operators with the right mix of experience, coachability, and leadership for LMM companies.
Variable sponsor track records and governance capabilities make sourcing reliable deal partners challenging.
Insufficient reporting and analytics after closing reduce confidence and hinder timely value creation adjustments.
High turnover or poorly prepared operators can derail growth plans, creating execution and timeline risks.
Sourcing is inconsistent and auction-prone; lack of a proprietary pipeline limits access to off-market opportunity sets.
