Investment thesis

Three Hills is a pioneer of European structured capital, providing bespoke less-dilutive financing solutions that span the capital structure from junior debt to preferred and senior equity. Its distinctive edge is sourcing sponsorless dealflow, working directly with founders and entrepreneur-led businesses that need capital for transformational events but want to avoid full control sales or heavy equity dilution. Geography covers Europe and North America, with a strong Italian and Southern European footprint. The firm targets high-quality mid-market companies and tailors instruments to each situation. The limited partner base is broad, including public pension plans, foundations, insurance companies, consultants and sovereign wealth funds across Europe, North America and Asia. Value creation is delivered through a dedicated in-house value-creation team supporting active hands-on growth, with portfolio companies having executed over 60 M&A acquisitions.
