BC Partners

About

BC Partners is an alternative investment manager established in 1986, managing approximately €40 billion in committed capital across two complementary strategies: Private Equity and Private Credit. The firm operates integrated transatlantic investment teams with offices across Europe and North America, serving as a capital provider and operational partner to founders, entrepreneurs, and management teams seeking to build and scale businesses.

The Private Equity strategy focuses on long-term value creation through direct investment and active engagement with portfolio companies. BC Partners Credit, launched in 2017, targets attractive credit opportunities across diverse market conditions, including complex credit segments where traditional lenders are less active. Both strategies benefit from the firm's sector-focused investment teams and access to its global platform.

The firm's operational model emphasizes sustained collaboration with stakeholders over extended holding periods, positioning BC Partners as a source of both capital and sector expertise. Investment teams are organised around four primary sectors, enabling focused sector knowledge alongside the firm's broader European and North American network reach.
