The strategy of ‘INVL Private Equity Fund II‘ (hereinafter – the Fund) is to use attractive opportunities in the Baltic States and Poland to invest in medium-sized companies that, after the injection of additional capital, have the potential to become leaders in their sector in the region, thereby ensuring very attractive risk-adjusted returns to investors. The Fund can also invest in companies listed in any country of the European Union, European Economic Area or European Free Trade Association. The Fund will focus on a controlling stake of a significant minority and will actively participate in investment management in order to significantly increase the value of capital in the long term. It will aim to target a diversified portfolio of 10-12 investments, providing late-stage capital to targets, as well as corporate buyouts and invest-in investments.

The Fund will invest in one portfolio investment from 15 million up to 35 million euros, however, in the presence of significant value growth potential with additional investments, it will be able to carry out smaller initial capital investments, and depending on the final size of the Fund, it will be able to carry out larger capital investments as well. The values of the target portfolio companies will range from 30 million euros up to 150 million euros.

The goal of ‘INVL BSGF Co-Invest Fund II’ (hereinafter – the Fund) is to collectively invest the accumulated monetary resources along with the closed-end fund intended for professional investors ‘INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund’ into private equity companies with the potential to become regional leaders. The Fund’s investments can be directed towards companies running in various sectors, but priority will be given to companies operating in the heavy industry sector. The geographical focus of the Fund’s investment activities is on less developed, but higher growth potential EU countries. The main focus and highest priority will be directed towards companies located in Central Europe.
