San Francisco, CA and New York, NY – FTV Capital, a sector-focused growth equity investment firm, marked the 20th anniversary of its founding and first fund, as the firm completed its most productive year of investment deployment in its history, backing nine new companies with over $450 million of growth capital. Since 1998, FTV Capital has delivered a consistent track record of strong performance and market-leading programs to drive growth and value creation across its portfolio of innovative companies in enterprise technology & services, financial services and payments & transaction processing.

FTV Capital’s ability to successfully deploy capital into market leading companies in its target sectors can be attributed to its proprietary, proactive sourcing methodology and its value proposition for entrepreneurs. FTV Capital portfolio company CEOs note that FTV was the most compelling capital partner because of the firm’s 20-year proven track record of helping great companies scale, deep domain expertise, flexibility and transaction customization and value beyond capital featuring access to FTV’s Global Partner Network® for commercial opportunity acceleration.

FTV’s ongoing success was underscored by both existing and new investors during the fundraising of its fifth fund, which was oversubscribed and closed at its hard cap in late 2016. The firm’s institutional limited partner base has grown and diversified across geography, size and type, including public and corporate pensions, superannuation funds, insurance companies, family offices, foundations and endowments.

Other key milestones include:

  • $2.7 billion raised across five growth equity funds
  • 107 portfolio company investments since inception
  • $14 billion in enterprise value created to date
  • 50%+ 3-year compounded annual growth rate for companies in FTV’s most recent fund
  • #5 ranking on Institutional Investor’s Fintech Finance 40 in 2018
  • Over 4,000 commercial introductions between portfolio companies and the enterprises in FTV’s  Global Partner Network

“Using the financial services industry as a lens into the pain points and opportunities for enterprises worldwide has allowed FTV to excel in complex, high-growth markets where the firm’s deep domain expertise and Global Partner Network can help further accelerate growth,” said Brad Bernstein, FTV Capital managing partner. “Our proven approach had enabled us to consistently deliver strong returns to our limited partners who have been tremendous supporters of FTV over the years.”

“As extensive as our network has become over the past 20 years, our limited partners remain a bedrock foundation of our mutual success,” said Richard Garman, FTV Capital managing partner. “Far beyond their capital commitments, our trusted limited partners have shared important insight and wisdom as FTV has grown over two decades, for which we are all truly grateful.”
