Marsh Our Purpose: Our Team: Our Story: Our Investment Strategy: B.P. Marsh is a specialist private equity investor in early-stage financial services businesses in the UK and internationally B.P. Marsh comprises highly experienced leaders in the financial services industry, with deep sector knowledge acquired over several decades B.P. Marsh commenced business in 1994 and has since invested in 63 companies. We have 23 investments in our current portfolio based in the UK and around the world We take a long-term view, with an average holding period of 6.7 years typically making an initial investment of up to £5m for minority equity positions (20-40% shareholdings) Mid-Market Private Equity Small to Mid-Cap Funds Private Equity or Investment Fund Enterprise Value We invest in businesses with an EV typically between £0 and £25m Our flexible investment approach allows us to operate in a niche segment where funding is difficult to obtain Alternative capital providers would typically require an EV of at least £50m to pique interest We tailor our investment model to suit each opportunity, offering funding to businesses which fall outside the criteria of traditional private equity houses Opportunities come from specialists in their own field looking to go it alone, management teams wanting to engineer a buyout, or existing businesses seeking growth capital This value stage is often perceived as high risk. However, the valuation multiples used are often lower, meaning we can secure an advantageous price, whilst also providing the investment capital required With our support, these businesses develop over time, achieving considerable growth in value These investments attract the interest of various parties including trade buyers and mid-market private equity houses, eventually being sold through competitively run processes.
