CLEARLAKE CAPITAL GROUP, L.P. IS A PRIVATE
INVESTMENT FIRM FOUNDED IN 2006.
Clearlake Capital Group is a global investment firm managing integrated platforms spanning private equity, liquid and private credit, and other related strategies. Founded in 2006, the firm has more than $90 billion of assets under management and has led or co-led over 400 investments globally. With deep knowledge and operational expertise across the technology, industrials, and consumer sectors, Clearlake seeks to partner with experienced management teams, providing patient, long-term capital and aiming to drive value through its active hands-on operating approach, O.P.S.® (Operations, People, Strategy). Headquartered in Santa Monica, Clearlake maintains a global footprint with offices in Dallas, London, Dublin, Luxembourg, Abu Dhabi, and Singapore.
Clearlake is led by José E. Feliciano and Behdad Eghbali, who have together built a team of investment professionals with a blend of sector and product capabilities through a history of long-term strategic partnerships with management to transform and grow companies. The team has approximately 400 years of collective experience with a focus on complex situations.
CLEARLAKE HAS A FLEXIBLE MANDATE TO INVEST
IN BOTH PRIVATE AND PUBLIC TRANSACTIONS.
Clearlake has a flexible mandate to invest in both private and public transactions across the capital structure in debt or equity securities in the lower and middle market through buyouts, corporate divestitures, recapitalizations and reorganizations. Clearlake believes these situations provide attractive investment opportunities as they are often overlooked relative to large, widely followed restructurings and corporate buyouts. In addition, Clearlake believes it is further differentiated by utilizing its sector driven investment approach while investing in transactions in which the firm exercises control or has significant influence.
Clearlake’s history of active leadership as value-added investors is further enhanced by the firm’s network of executives and operating resources within its core industries. Clearlake has the ability to take advantage of market dislocations, out-of-favor industries, and companies in transition across different phases of the economic cycle while improving operations and creating value.
