Our approach

Bregal Investments seeks to invest in companies and funds with sound business models, robust business integrity, and an ability to have positive societal and environmental impact.

We aim to partner with investment teams with a strong track record, high standards of excellence and ethics, and an ability to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our investors.

Capital with a purpose

Our teams work closely with the management teams of our portfolio companies to help transform and position their businesses for future success, focusing on long-term, sustainable value creation.

Our team’s steadfast dedication to incorporating responsible investing factors into our investment analysis and decision-making processes has provided us with a deeper understanding of potential risks and value creation opportunities, enabling us to invest and position our companies to thrive in an ever-evolving global economy.

We engage deeply with our portfolio companies and General Partners to launch sustainability-focused solutions and to deliver sustainable business models with the objective of delivering strong financial returns.
