Singular Focus on Lower Middle Market Private Equity

Pathfinder 360°¹ is a multi-family investment vehicle dedicated exclusively to limited partner commitments and direct co-investments alongside top tier lower middle market private equity funds. We believe exposure to partnership- and growth-oriented private equity fund managers is a critical element to any investment portfolio.

How it works

Access plus scale. Built for the long-term.

Our multi-family investor base enables scale and access to leading lower middle market fund managers across the country. Investing from committed and dedicated vehicles, our platform represents a co-operative of like-minded families – we have not outsourced our private equity underwriting to allocators, but rather have pooled our capital to afford us the ability to serve as nimble and long-term partners to private equity managers.

Foundational elements

Pathfinder 360° Pillars

Long Term Approach

Pathfinder 360° represents the private equity allocation of a group of like-minded families and individuals. Our goal is to identify and invest behind and alongside the best lower middle market private equity funds in the country, and to serve as a long-term partner to each of our committed managers.

Focused Strategy

We focus on North American lower middle market buyouts. We believe this is the most attractive segment of the market to invest in and the driving force behind the broader economy. By staying focused, we are able to foster relationships and develop expertise to invest behind what we know.

Partnership

We want to back private equity firms and managers who we know and trust, and who in turn have earned the respect and trust of their underlying portfolio companies and management teams. It is our job to be consistent and reliable limited partners and investors to our private equity funds, and we strive to deliver on that promise.
