Investment Focus

Investor and partner

Sagard has found that mid-sized businesses looking to grow are often restricted by a lack of access to investors who, in addition to providing capital, can also help them to shape and deploy a medium- to long-term strategic vision. 

Success stories waiting to be written

Sagard invests in companies:

  • Valued at more than €60 million.
  • Led by ambitious management.
  • Committed to strengthening their market leadership.
  • Operating in attractive industries.

An active support

In response, Sagard has positioned itself as a core investor in mid-sized companies operating primarily in France, Belgium and Switzerland. In this way, we act as financial partner and advisor of choice for mid-market companies with high-growth potential. More than just providing financing, we actively support our portfolio investments with our deep pool of experience and network of contacts.

An innovative approach: Industrial Advisors

To be even more effective, Sagard is assisted by a group of Industrial Advisors – a diverse team of leading senior executives and experts – and an Advisory Board made up of industrial and financial business leaders. Their combined expertise provides us with the resources needed to enhance our approach and strategic vision with a detailed understanding of companies and underlying their industries.
