Since 1990, Warburg Pincus has invested more than $1 billion of equity in business services companies. Business services represent a worldwide market size of over $1.7 trillion. As in many other industry verticals within Warburg Pincus, we invest across the entire life-cycle of an enterprise from early-stage financings, growth equity investments, management buy-outs of mature market leaders, divisional spin-outs of non-core corporate assets, to private investments in public companies.

Within business services, our focus is on companies that leverage the intersection of data, services and software. Typically at the time of our initial investment, a company may have one or two of these key components. We then work with the management team to build an integrated services offering. We believe the greatest sustainable value can be created through the combination of applying technology and using data to maximize the profitability of service businesses.

Our approach to investing is thesis-driven and partnership-oriented. We study a sector from the top down, understanding the fundamental trends, competitive dynamics and structural and regulatory patterns. Based on our deep industry research we identify exceptional management teams with whom we partner to build industry leaders.
