OFI Private Equity Capital
OFI Private Equity Capital is an investment company listed on NYSE Euronext Paris (code: OPEC).
OPEC is positioned on the buyout small cap market, primarily involving companies that have already gone through an initial structuring step during a primary LBO (the takeover then entails a secondary buyout) or an IPO (the takeover then entails a delisting, an operation referred to as "Public to Private").
OPEC makes capital investments but also invests in "mezzanine" type instruments in order to provide its shareholders with an annual rate of return.
Since 2005, OPEC has created a portfolio with 12 companies, all solidly established within their niche markets and led by very experienced management teams. In only a few years, OPEC has become a dynamic actor on the buyout market in France, serving as a long-term shareholder but without interfering in the development of each of its equity interests.
Finally, OPEC's investment strategy includes extra-financial criteria in the area of Sustainable Development (environmental, social, societal and governance). This initiative allows the economic models of its equity interests to evolve, while increasing their valuation over the medium term.
