Investment Strategy

Praesidian Capital Europe has been providing flexible capital to middle market businesses since its inception in 2013. In 2020, Praesidian Capital Europe officially launched its control equity platform with a focus on acquiring middle market businesses with strong management teams and attractive growth prospects. Through a combination of personal capital and long-standing relationships with investors, Praesidian Capital Europe is diligently building out a portfolio of control equity deals within the lower middle market.
