STRATEGY
SIRIUS Special Situation Fund’s strategic breadth and flexible capital enables us to participate in a differentiated set of investment opportunities - corporate debt, growth capital solutions, rescue financing and non-performing loan portfolios. SIRIUS invests flexibly across the capital structure – either by secondary investments into private debt or direct private equity investments in businesses with strong potential.
We invest through a combination of private equity and credit to generate superior risk-adjusted returns by creating value through our expertise, local contacts and hands on approach. Our committed long-term, flexible capital gives us the ability to work closely with portfolio companies to structure bespoke capital solutions to create further value through an optimal investment horizon.
The fund makes both debt and equity investments in middle-market companies that are undervalued and have an element of distress, dislocation, or dysfunction. We seek situations where we either control or exert significant influence over opportunities that exhibit these characteristics. We actively manage our portfolio companies to deliver industry-leading value to our investors.
PROCESS
We undertake a thorough research and multi-step due diligence processes both internally and with the help of external parties, to provide outstanding investment & restructuring advisory services. The team sources, diligences and executes opportunities in corporate special situations and distressed debt arising from market dislocations and corporate portfolios from bank balance sheets. Our process also benefits from our in-house resources and external industry advisers with whom we partner to make strategic and operational improvements in our portfolio companies and thus driving investor value.
The Fund seeks to create a balanced portfolio with high conviction investments, aimed at realising value within a 36 to 48 month period. The focus remains primarily on "loan for influence" investment opportunities, all the while actively working with management teams to effect outstanding investment outcomes.
