​​​​​​​​​Private Equity

Accompanying corporate growth

The Edmond de Rothschild Group is a leader in private equity, using its family experience to assist companies. Our teams are not merely financial investors. They are active partners in company growth and work closely with company executives on value creation.

Partnerships with dedicated teams

Our flexible structure favours an opportunistic and responsive approach which enables us to identify tomorrow's investment themes and build teams with the best expertise to ensure project success.

We have extensive experience in fund structuring, investment process definition, ESG principles and the rules of good governance. We guarantee perfect alignment of the interests of investors, investment teams and the Group in all of our funds.

 

An offer composed of 11 specific areas of expertise across 3 main themes

Development capital

As an active minority investor, we assist entrepreneurs and families throughout their company's entire growth cycle. We target high-growth companies that are both innovative and have technological advantages. Our financial returns are based on sustainable company growth rather than on financial engineering and leverage.

Our expertise in development capital has positioned our Group as one of the most highly recognised and oldest companies in the field in Europe. More specifically, we have particularly strong experience in the healthcare field, a sector with which our Group has been involved for many years.

Emerging markets

Our Group takes an active part in emerging markets by providing financing, technical expertise and strategic international partners. We invest in high-growth companies operating in key sectors of the economy. Our portfolio construction is diversified with investments in shareholders' equity and debt to secure attractive returns.

We are very active in sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa and Latin America. Each of our teams has extensive experience in these different markets.

Real assets

We finance infrastructures that provide structural and social benefits to local communities thanks to investments in sustainable assets that are respectful of the environment. The assets are secured and well-managed to generate stable revenue over the long term for our investors.

Our Group has historically been present in European infrastructures and is among the most recognised finance advisors in Europe. We invest both in shareholder's equity and debt in transport and social infrastructure, and in niche projects including soil remediation, transportation, environmental infrastructures​ and luxury hotels.

 

Being a responsible investor

Our Group has long understood that taking environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues into consideration is key to both risk management and value creation for all of the companies in its portfolio. Each area of expertise applies considerations from outside the realm of finance to its specific investment strategy and implements the highest ESG standards.
