Active Investing

The partners of GPX have significant hands-on management expertise, gained through direct operating experience with companies both publicly traded and private, domestic and international, in multiple and often complex industries representing all stages of development.

Our strategy is to leverage this experience to achieve superior returns on a select group of private investments. We call it active investing. And it means we invest more than capital; we also invest our experience, passion, insight, and the other assets gained through decades of hands-on management and operational success.

GPX's active role in the management of its businesses can range from routine board oversight to holding direct management positions for periods of time. Regardless of the structure, GPX is dedicated to working as a successful partner, allowing the company to benefit from our successful operating experience, financial acumen, relationships and other assets in order to improve execution and operating performance and ultimately increase company value.

In order to truly capitalize on this experience, GPX differentiates itself from traditional funds that try to manage dozens of investments. GPX concentrates on a limited group of portfolio companies so it can dedicate the time and resources necessary to focus on the achievement of superior operating performance and value creation.

This focused strategy and hands on operating experience is what sets GPX apart from other private equity sponsors. The true essence of active investing is the value that GPX brings to each investment. We have a vested interest in the performance of every GPX company, and so our approach is anything but passive.
