Ultimately, we believe our growth-oriented model results in stronger companies that employ the best people, are socially responsible, and deliver strong returns over the long-term.
OUR INNOVATIVE STRATEGY
SVR Group United's companies connect people to each other and the wider geography, help people improve their daily lives, with the best of local and global content. Every day, millions of people use our products and services.
A Differentiated Approach to Investing
SVR Group United’s operations are managed as a nationally integrated enterprise. In today’s environment, where companies increasingly need to identify and execute opportunities on a global scale, our ability to leverage a fully integrated global team represents a significant advantage.
SVR Group United brings extensive experience and resources to help management teams assess and capitalize on business opportunities. Our National industry vertical teams work together to diligence local and multinational companies and to identify investments where we have differential insights and a unique ability to drive transformational change.
We believe in the power of local backed by global scale
We continue to back new business models to fuel our growth and increasingly, we look for opportunities to address big societal needs in markets where we see the greatest growth potential. These include all major markets in the world. Where we see a company with promise, we move quickly to expand and scale it.
Building and Growing Great Companies
SVR Group United Equity pioneered the value-added approach to private equity investing. We were among the first private equity firms to establish a dedicated global portfolio group staffed with operating and strategy professionals who partner with management teams. Our portfolio group, in conjunction with our investment professionals – most of whom come from strategic consulting backgrounds, form a collaborative team that enables us to create lasting impact for our portfolio companies and helps them reach their full potential.
We believe we are the best global growth partner for founders, startups and other investors with the ambition to scale in our markets.
Our operating model is different from many other companies. We both invest in and run leading companies, and we add value at all life-stages. We create our own businesses or invest in early stage companies, we take promising models and grow them quickly to scale, we evolve and grow companies already at scale, and we hold investments in listed companies with significant upside.
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Management
utilizes a strategic, fact-based and diligence-driven investment approach that by definition includes a multitude of environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations. We believe that these ESG practices lead to better investment outcomes while considering the firm’s broader impacts on the environment and society.
