GPI’s new platform search services create attractive opportunities for private equity groups to deploy large amounts of capital with superior risk-adjusted returns. Over the last 10 years, GPI has functioned as an outsourced deal origination team for over twenty-five private equity groups with fund sizes ranging from $50 million to over $2 billion.  Our core services include:

• identifying attractive industries,
• developing target universes,
• approaching targets to determine their interest in selling and
• providing non-auction buyside mergers and acquisition advisory services.

Our proactive deal sourcing capabilities provide clients a steady stream of primarily non-auction deal flow. Further, it ensures that our clients spend less time developing strategies and more time evaluating fully-packaged opportunities. 

GPI also performs add-on acquisition searches for our clients’ portfolio companies and is a leading developer of Management Driven Industry Consolidation (“MDIC”) investment opportunities.  A MDIC is a unique private equity investment opportunity that combines (i) a sound investment thesis in an attractive industry, (ii) an accomplished management team, (iii) ample private equity, (iv) a platform company and (v) add-on acquisitions.
