AGI Partners, LLC

AGI Partners, LLC ("AGI") is a private investment partnership based in New York City. AGI draws on family capital and select institutions to make direct investments as a principal in special opportunities and private equity. Our approach, primarily as a principal rather than as an asset manager, provides us the flexibility to invest across a broad range of differentiated opportunities and innovative structures for significant value creation. We leverage the expertise and creativity of our team combined with our global network to generate superior risk-adjusted returns for our investors. AGI's unique C-Suite Partnership works with experienced executives to acquire and build leading companies in the lower middle market. We do so by partnering with strong management teams who care who their capital partner is and who have meaningful economic stakes in the success of their businesses. We work diligently with our management teams to help them formulate strategic, financial, and operational plans that drive growth and enhance profits. On June 19th, 2014, AGI was named Private Equity Firm of the Year at the ACG Champion's Awards ceremony held at the Metropolitan Club in New York City. ACG New York is the leading association for middle market dealmaking professionals: private equity investors, debt providers, M&A advisers, corporate executives, accountants, attorneys and other service providers. On the same evening, AGI was also selected as a finalist for the Deal of the Year Award. The prestigious Champion's Awards recognize outstanding achievements and accomplishments of leading private equity investors, advisory firms and dealmakers across the middle market. Selected from over 350 participating companies in the first stage of evaluation, award winners were judged by a panel of independent experts.
