Founders Trust is an acclaimed, high-quality

white knight investor in companies

and buyer of companies.

We are evergreen capital and we invest for the long term.

We buy, or purchase minority or majority interests, in companies where owners:

– Want an absolutely reliable partner to help take the company to the next level

– Either want to retire, stay working at the company, or stay in a modified or board role

– Want a reliable buyer who will complete the transaction with certainty

Frictionless Acquisition System™

“Completion Matters.”

You see it in the news every day. In 2023, in the Middle Market, 75% of acquisitions fell out of LOI and did not sell, in the U.S. market.

We believe it should be different. Founders Trust is the Reliable Buyer™ and closes no matter what the economic environment.

“Quality Matters.”

Every seller, if they have a choice, wants that buyer who will treat his company with a view on Relationships and the Long-Term. Rather than a short ‘buy-maximize-sell’ strategy like private equity buyers, or conglomeration and layoffs like strategic buyers.
