Investment Strategy
The firm employs an investment strategy that it has trademarked, "M&A&O", which integrates traditional M&A with operational expertise. Throughout the transaction, transition and ownership, the firm’s in-house teams apply operational guidance and resources in order to maximize value. This unique strategy means the firm often acts more like a strategic buyer of companies than a financial buyer. After an acquisition, Platinum Equity often invests in additional businesses, equipment, people and facilities that give its holdings a stronger position for the long haul.

“... the generation of the 20’s was truly secular in that it still knew its theology and its varieties of religious experience. We are post-secular, inventing new faiths, without any sense of organizing truths. The truths we accept are so multiple that honesty becomes little more than a strategy by which you manage your tendencies toward duplicity.”
—Ann Douglas (b. 1942)
