Warburg Pincus LLC, a New York limited liability company, together with its affiliates (hereinafter collectively
referred to as “Warburg Pincus”, the “Firm”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a global private equity investment firm. We
provide investment advisory services to pooled investment vehicles referred to in this brochure as “Funds” or
“Clients”.
Founded in 1966, Warburg Pincus is one of the oldest and most established private equity firms in the world. We are
headquartered in New York, with ten additional investing offices around the world in Beijing, Berlin, Hong Kong,
Houston, London, Mumbai, San Francisco, São Paulo, Shanghai and Singapore.
The Managing Directors of our Firm are our principal owners. No person owns more than 25% of the Firm.
Warburg Pincus affiliates serve as advisers, sponsors, general partners and/or managers of our Funds. Interests in our
Funds are privately offered to qualified investors from time to time. Along with our own capital commitments to our
Funds, we invest third party investors’ capital contributions to our Funds on a discretionary basis, primarily through
growth and other investments made by our Funds into operating businesses.
Our global Funds are generally offered on the basis of a diversified private equity investment strategy rather than to
meet individual objectives of investors. The Firm has also offered, and expects to offer in the future, other funds,
including sector or geographically focused companion funds to co-invest with a global fund in certain subsets of
investment opportunities. The Firm has also offered, and expects to offer in the future other purpose funds such as
continuation funds, sponsored secondary funds and real estate funds. Our Funds’ governing documents establish
discretionary authority for us to manage the investment and other day-to-day activities of the Funds, although certain
limits on investments such as concentration limits and geographic sub-limits may be established on a Fund-specific
basis. Our investment advisory business consists of identifying and selecting investment opportunities for our Funds,
and participating in the acquisition, investment management, monitoring and ultimate disposition of our Funds’
investments.
Since its founding, the Firm has followed a growth-oriented investment strategy. We seek to make thesis-driven
growth capital transactions, early growth platforms, buyout, recapitalizations and other special situation
investments across a variety of business sectors and geographic regions to maximize long-term investment returns
for our Funds. Our Executive Leadership Team (“ELT”), including the committees of the Firm’s Investment
Management Group (“IMG”), coordinates the investment advisory business of the Firm on a global basis. The
Firm’s Operating Management Group (“OMG”) is made up of the senior operating leadership of Warburg Pincus
and oversees the operations of the Firm outside its core investing activities. The IMG and OMG are led by the Firm’s
Chief Executive Officer, Charles R. Kaye.
We select companies for investment after conducting due diligence and developing a detailed investment thesis.
As a fundamental aspect of our investment advisory strategy, we typically take an active role on the boards of
directors of our portfolio companies – either by designating our employees to such boards of directors or, as
deemed appropriate, through non-Warburg Pincus designees – providing assistance in developing and executing
their strategic plans and
realizing our investment theses. We invest in privately-held and publicly-traded
companies. The majority of our investment professionals are specialized by the following core sectors of industry:
Energy Transition & Sustainability; Financial Services; Healthcare; Business Services; Industrials; Technology;
and Real Estate, with numerous related sub-sectors (including geographies) of specialization.
Our primary existing private equity and real estate funds are:
