Permira Advisers Ltd.

Permira Advisers Ltd. is a global investment firm that advises funds across two core asset classes: private equity, comprising both long-term majority buyout and minority growth equity strategies, and credit, offered through Permira Credit's direct lending, CLO management, structured credit, and strategic opportunities platforms. The firm applies a thematic investment approach concentrated on four key sectors — technology, consumer, healthcare, and services — pursuing acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, take-private transactions, turnarounds, and growth buyouts across companies headquartered in Europe, North America, and Asia. Transaction types include management buyouts, public-to-private transactions, growth equity financings, spin-offs, and structured credit facilities, with the firm pursuing both majority control and significant minority ownership positions depending on strategy. Permira applies a collaborative value creation approach, supported by a dedicated Value Creation Team and a network of senior advisers who work closely with management teams to drive operational performance, technology-led transformation, and long-term growth; the firm's credit division has provided more than €14 billion to €20 billion of debt capital to over 300 European businesses since its 2007 establishment. The firm advises funds with total committed capital of approximately €77 billion to €80 billion and has completed more than 300 private equity investments since inception. Founded in 1985 as Schroder Ventures (becoming independent in 1996 and rebranding as Permira in 2001), the firm is headquartered in London, United Kingdom, with additional offices across Europe, the United States, and Asia, including New York, Frankfurt, Madrid, Milan, Paris, Stockholm, Hong Kong, and Menlo Park.
