Human capital remains the most valuable asset to alternative investment firms

The truth is, in PE, it’s all about what the individual can bring to the company. The strong experience, proven track record and broad skill set are critical, but what else do they bring to the table? For Canadian PE firms, portfolio company executives must be able to drive PE opportunities by applying the ideal combination of sourcing and networking, vetting and the ability to strategically deploy capital to the right entrepreneurs, growth markets and innovation areas.
