We invest principally in privately-issued common and preferred securities of both private and public companies. Our target investment size is generally $20 million to $100 million, but we can arrange larger financings through our extensive network of co-investors. We can hold majority or minority stakes, and typically have significant board representation on our portfolio companies.
