Wasserstein & Co.
Overview
Wasserstein & Co. is an independent private equity firm and the family office of the late Mr. Bruce Wasserstein, with offices in New York and Los Angeles. The firm was formed in January 2001 when the merchant banking group of Wasserstein Perella & Co., Inc., a global investment banking firm, spun out to become an independent entity upon the acquisition of Wasserstein Perella by Dresdner Bank. Wasserstein & Co. manages capital on behalf of the Wasserstein family and leading institutional and individual investors, including public and corporate pension funds, foreign governmental entities, endowments, foundations, and high-net-worth families. The firm's investment activities are conducted through two entities: Wasserstein Partners, which focuses on mid-market leveraged buyout investments, and Wasserstein Debt Opportunities, which specializes in high-yield bonds and leveraged loans. Wasserstein & Co. has a history of investments in media, communications, consumer products, and water and industrial sectors. Notable investments include ALM Media, Harry & David, Mastercraft, Henley Wood, Real Estate Media, Sportcraft, The Deal, and New York Magazine. Wasserstein & Co. employs a value-based and process-driven approach to identify and capitalize on price inefficiencies in non-large cap issues and underfollowed opportunities. The firm's investment team has completed 27 platform acquisitions and 48 add-on acquisitions over a 23-year period, demonstrating a consistent track record in the private equity space.
