SCORE: Accessing Private Equity to Start and Grow a Company
Description: Over the past decade, the independent sponsor model has become increasingly prevalent in the lower middle market, with investors interested in private companies actively seeking to coinvest with prominent or promising sponsors as a supplement to direct, brokered, or other deal flow channels. “Independent sponsor” is an expansive and evolving category that may be understood to cover any transaction in which a sponsor first sources, diligences, and negotiates the recapitalization or buyout of an acquisition target and then subsequently seeks financing partners to close the transaction. As such, the independent sponsor model is essentially the inverse of the blind pool, where the fund sponsor first obtains binding investor commitments before sourcing and closing investments.
