Flexible investment strategies to capitalize on opportunities that fall outside of the traditional funds thesis.
Remora EQ focuses on investing in companies with strong business fundamentals that need support to unlock their potential.
The Remora EQ Fund, was born out of a shift in viewpoint, that the current Private Equity landscape is crowded and that the opportunities for comfortable returns that were derived by simple financial engineering are now dwindling. With this realization, we foresee that a new breed of Private Equity will rise, one that looks to focus on investing in companies with strong business fundamentals that find themselves in a position of underperformance or that are under valued not because they lack potential, but rather lack the managerial skill set or capital that is required to unlock their potential. We consider these to be special opportunities.
Our team has successfully advised/closed on 100+ deals.
The Fund is sponsored by Welch Capital Partners (“WCP”), an investment banking firm and subsidiary of Welch LLP, one of Canada’s oldest accounting firms. Founded in 1918, Welch has over 350 professionals and deep roots across the Canadian business community. WCP was formed by the Partners of Welch LLP and its core focus is on mergers & acquisitions and capital advisory.
We invest in companies with activities primarily in Canada and the United States.
Remora seeks to invest in companies with strong business fundamentals that find themselves in a “Special Situation” position of underperformance, undercapitalization, working capital deficiencies, untapped market potential, and/or ownership transitions & successions. The majority of these businesses do not meet the investment criteria of most private equity firms, and will therefore need to seek an alternative source of capital. The Remora EQ Fund with the support of its operating partners, and investors, helps these companies recapitalize, grow and improve operations, making them more marketable to both financial and strategic buyers in the future.
Remora is not looking for “middle of the fairway” opportunities.
