    The New Rules of Co-Investing

    Matt Swain, Managing Director and Global Co-Head of Equity Capital Solutions at Houlihan Lokey, sits down with Adam Spence, Partner and Head of Co-Investments at Partners Capital, to discuss what it takes to build an effective co-investment program. Adam shares how Partners Capital evaluates opportunities, why speed and transparency are critical in the co-investment market, and what sponsors can do to build stronger relationships before a live deal. The conversation also covers fee and carry expectations, governance rights, follow-on capital, and the growing role of co-investments in private equity. Key Insights: ● Transparency builds trust. Adam emphasizes that sponsors should share the full story early, including the risks, rather than presenting an overly polished version of a deal. ● Speed can be a major differentiator. Partners Capital is structured to move quickly while still maintaining a rigorous diligence and approval process. ● Relationships matter before the deal. Sponsors who invest time in building trust before a live opportunity are better positioned when timelines are tight.

    Value Creation, Culture, and the Future of Middle-Market PE

    What separates strong private equity firms from great ones? Justin Abelow, Managing Director at Houlihan Lokey, sits down with Eric Bommer, Co-Managing Partner at Sentinel Capital Partners, to discuss the business of better investing. Eric shares Sentinel’s perspective on investment committee discipline, revenue-driven value creation, strategic M&A, and the role that culture plays in building a durable firm. The conversation also touches on leadership, management-team partnerships, and the outlook for middle-market dealmaking. Key Insights: ● Value creation matters more than financial engineering. In today’s market, returns are driven more by revenue growth and operational improvement than by leverage or expansion. ● Better decisions come from open, collaborative debate. Sentinel’s process shows that stronger investment outcomes often come from cultures where ideas are challenged early and often. ● A differentiated operating model can be a real competitive advantage. A firm’s approach to collaboration, talent development, and management-team support can directly strengthen execution and investment outcomes.
