Shiv interviews Chris Sznewajs, Founder and Managing Partner at Pacific Avenue Capital.
In this episode, Chris and Shiv discuss carve-outs, buyouts, and the non-traditional types of investment deals available for “unnatural” owners – founders and investors who are ready for a transition. Learn how to underwrite these types of deals, and what benchmarks Chris’s team looks for in potential portcos. Hear about how Pacific Avenue Capital leverages their internal ops team during diligence and how they execute value creation plans post-close, as well as the balancing act of deploying more capital in order to generate higher returns from portcos.
