Capital mandates for private equity, family offices, and investment banks.
AutomAIT acts for a limited number of firms across private markets. A mandate is exclusive to one of them for as long as it runs.
Mandates
Mandates.
Six mandates. We act on one side of a transaction, for one firm per thesis, for as long as the mandate runs.
01AcquisitionBuy-sideWe hold coverage of owners who are not for sale, through the years before they are. The mandate transacts before a book exists.Perspective · Origination Ahead of Process02Add-onBuy-sideWe map the whole set inside the thesis and work it from before the platform closes. The programme does not stall at the second acquisition.Perspective · The Buy-and-Build Spread03SuccessionSell-sideWe act for the owner while the decision is still being considered, not once it is announced. The terms beside price are treated as terms.Perspective · Succession in Owner-Operated Businesses04Carve-outEither sideWe read the parent's timetable in its own filings and reach the division in the quarters before a banker is appointed. The standalone cost base is settled before exclusivity.Perspective · Carve-Outs and Separation Cost05Capital raiseRaiseWe fix the structure first, then define the short list of providers who can price it. Nothing goes to a party who could never have transacted.Perspective · Financing the Lower Middle Market06Fund formationRaiseWe establish attribution and access in a form an allocator can verify without us, then set the order of the meetings. The first close is not asked to carry the story.Perspective · Attribution and Access
The Firm
Discretion.
Engagements are confidential. We do not publish transactions, name counterparties, or act for two firms on the same thesis.
What we have run is discussed on a call, not on a page.
