Yarra Capital Partners specialises in businesses with revenues in the order of $10M to $50M.  We find that companies of this size have generally reached a ceiling where new investment is required if the company is to grow to $100M or greater.  We’re attracted to this segment of the market because we’ve been business owners ourselves and we like dealing with businesses that are founder or family-owned.

The owners and management of YCP investee companies are focused on increasing the value of the business in the medium-to-long term.  The existing business owners may be looking at succession planning as they approach retirement, organic growth initiatives or acquisitions, or facilitating an MBO or MBI.
