PE/VC investors
Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) investors are the catalysts of innovation and growth in the business world. PE firms primarily target established companies, seeking to optimize operations and unlock value through strategic investments and management expertise. They focus on long-term growth and profitability, often preparing businesses for a future sale or IPO. VC investors, by contrast, are the adventurers of finance, injecting capital into high-potential startups and early-stage companies. They embrace risk for the possibility of outsized returns, often becoming invaluable advisors. Both investor types not only bring capital but also strategic guidance, industry connections, and market insights, propelling their portfolio companies towards success.

KKR is a leading global investment firm that manages multiple alternative asset classes, including private equity, energy, infrastructure, real estate and credit, with strategic partners that manage hedge funds.<br />
<br />
As investors with an industrialist vision, we aim to generate attractive investment returns by following a patient and disciplined approach, employing high-quality people, pursuing the highest standards of excellence, and aligning our interests with those of our investment partners.<br />
<br />
We often talk about the benefits of our structure and our business model - which marries third party capital with our capital markets business and balance sheet - because we believe that we have built something different. We have a capital markets business that provides a full range of services, from taking companies public to underwriting new deals (for both KKR and third party companies) and to syndicating debt and equity. And we have long-dated capital in our funds, ready to deploy across a wide variety of asset classes. Individually, these funds and businesses are generating returns for our fund investors and stockholders, but when they are paired, they create a powerful competitive advantage. We see our balance sheet as a key differentiator, giving us the ability to align our interest with our fund investors, develop new investment strategies and support existing ones, and enter into strategic transactions on our own behalf.
