Testimonials
"Rutland gave us the time to figure things out, and the confidence to try new ideas. But they were also very good at keeping us on track and making sure we didn't get distracted,"
"I learned a lot from partnering with Rutland and seeing how they work on the board of a business. Without ever doing it deliberately, working with Rutland resulted in significant management development for me.”
"The Rutland team is very close to the business and clear on what they expect. They listen to management on what needs to be done to deliver against those expectations and they provide support where appropriate, which empowers us to achieve these goals."
"I was impressed by Rutland's depth of knowledge on the business, their openness in discussing the challenges ahead, and their commitment to rebuilding the business properly, in a sustainable way."
"When it came down to engaging with potential suitors for the business, Rutland stood out as being honest, ethical and straightforward. We gelled with the people and they fully engaged with our business."
Rutland Partners Overview |
Find out more about Rutland Partners and our approach to helping businesses work through current challenges, difficult transitions or complex development plans to reach their full potential. |
We view complexity not as a challenge but as an opportunity. Our mission isn’t just to provide equity and wait for a company’s natural growth to generate a return on that investment but to combat inertia, change the culture of a business, and use that momentum to implement a hands-on sustainable value-creation strategy. Management teams are key to this approach and our goal is to empower them to plan and execute successful strategies to transfer their businesses.
The companies we invest in need much more than just capital to thrive. We focus on a still-underserved area of the market; investing in potentially good businesses, but which are in circumstances that mean they need to change or adapt to reach their full potential. With a well-established profile we invest in a wide variety of investment scenarios; MBOs, MBIs, IBOs, P2Ps, complex carve-outs, replacement capital, etc, providing equity of £10-50m for business valued between £20-150m.
