Crestview Partners

The firm concentrates on three industries: media, financial services, and industrials. Its media investments span distribution, communications infrastructure, content, equipment, and services, and its financial services team covers asset and wealth management, insurance, capital markets, and banking. In industrials, it targets industrial and industrial services companies with competitive advantages that position them to grow faster than cyclical trends. Recent portfolio activity includes Victory Capital’s agreement to acquire First Eagle Investments, the rebrand of Pelagos Insurance Capital, formerly Fidelis Insurance, and Congruex. Crestview forms long-term partnerships with entrepreneurs and management teams, using flexible, creative solutions tailored to business owners. About 70% of its investments have been sourced through relationships with business owners and management teams. The firm applies its partners’ operating experience to add value alongside management. General partner participation of $771 million aligns its interests with those of investors and management.
