Proactive Deal Sourcing

Typical of a high quality private equity firm, most of GSA's investment opportunities are sourced pro-actively. Grove Street has a unique combination of industry expertise and relationships that have made it possible to develop a highly effective approach to identifying and gaining access to high quality private equity funds. Most investments are developed through GSA's proactive efforts to identify and call on attractive teams well before they launch their fundraising efforts. As part of its proactive effort, GSA also identifies specific geographic regions and/or areas of industry specialization and seeks out the best performing funds in these targeted arenas. In the first four years of operation, Grove Street has sourced well over 1500 investment opportunities and made commitments to over 80 of these firms. In many cases GSA has been able to gain substantial allocations for its clients with teams that were heavily over-subscribed.
