Long Arc Capital
Long Arc Capital
New York, United States
Our mission at Long Arc Capital is to deliver excellence in growth equity to our Limited Partners. We believe the continual refinement of the seemingly “ordinary” or “simple” aspects of our investment and ownership processes will compound over time, leading to extraordinary performance. We provide growth capital to businesses with a sustainable competitive advantage and a strong management team with whom we can partner to build a category leader. We focus on North American and European companies where technology is transforming traditional business models in the Financial Services, Business Services, Technology, Media and Telecommunications sectors. Long Arc Capital LP is an investment firm dedicated to building and scaling breakthrough businesses in industries where technology is disrupting traditional business models. Long Arc employs an “active ownership” approach when managing investee companies to deliver outsized risk-adjusted returns for its investment vehicles’ limited partners. The Firm was founded as an independent financial sponsor in April 2016 and is based in New York with an additional office in London. Long Arc Capital was founded by six partners (the “Partners” and collectively the “Partnership”), each an industry leader with an average 25 years of investing or operating experience. The Firm is led by Gaurav Bhandari, a former 26-year veteran of Goldman Sachs where he was responsible for the private equity business of Goldman Sachs Investment Partners and prior to that was a proprietary investor. The Partner group was assembled by Gaurav to be able to solve the challenges entrepreneurs and management teams face when building businesses. Long Arc completed three control investments ahead of raising its first commingled fund.
