LBO France in short

LBO France has been a key private equity player in France and Italy over the last 35 years, operating on the business transmission market. It keeps a close eye on market changes and the potential for new opportunities, and over the years has broadened its scope to include other areas of illiquid investments, to which it applies the same key success factors. Its unique qualities are put to work across all its activities: the market knowledge of a local player, a high degree of selectivity and an overall emphasis on the value creation. Investors also benefit from the vision and convictions of a responsible player, and the analysis methods and human and financial resources necessary for their success.
