Investment history

Through Sagard I and Sagard II, Sagard enjoys much greater freedom of action than other funds, in particular to invest over longer periods – often more than five years – and to deploy a wider variety of financing solutions, from LBOs to minority stakes.

“We met with a certain number of potential financial partners, and Sagard emerged as our clear preference. In particular, Sagard impressed us not only with its financial expertise, but also with its extensive knowledge of our industry, with its investment horizon, which was longer than that of many other financial investors, and with its commitment to supporting ambitious merger and acquisition projects as part of the ongoing consolidation of our industry. All of this fit our project like a glove.”
