Creating Value

We invest in profitable, established companies which hold leading positions in their market segments through proven business models. We provide support and insight to develop businesses organically and by acquisition, sustaining their growth and targetting continued success.

Bringing credibility, partnership and strength

Our Investment Ideal

Our principal focus is buy-outs, buy-ins and development capital investments, typically in businesses with an enterprise value of between €20 million to €150 million.

We look to invest anything from €10 million to €75 million of equity in individual opportunities, and we have consistently supported our portfolio companies by providing further capital to accelerate their growth through acquisitions or capital investment.

Sector expertise

We benefit from deep sector understanding and have a particular focus on four industry sectors: Consumer & Leisure, Financial Services, Healthcare and Support Services. These are sectors where we have a good network and understanding of the market dynamics, and a track record of investment.

Power of the portfolio

The Bridgepoint Affinity Purchasing Scheme, or BAPS, is a service provided by Bridgepoint Development Capital to its UK portfolio companies aimed at driving down costs on non-strategic products. It does this by aggregating purchasing volumes and thereby achieving significantly reduced prices.
