About Us
Established in 2012, Altas pioneered a more purposeful approach to owning and building great businesses
When we invest, we recognize that we are embarking on a journey that is unique to each business.
Our focus is building stronger, more durable, and even more valuable businesses in partnership with great management teams.
Our flexible time horizon allows us to sell when our work is done, not when our time is up.
Our performance reflects our commitment to creating value that is significant, enduring, and for the benefit of all our stakeholders
Our Firm
We have a singular strategy. Each year, we seek to invest in only one or two businesses that possess the rare combination of quality and opportunity. We keep our bar high. This gives us the best chance to generate great results with less risk.
We steward more than $10 billion of our partners’ capital.
Our Focus
We acquire high-quality businesses that have untapped potential, investing from $400 million to more than $1 billion of equity in each.
We identify these businesses by applying a framework, focused on key attributes, developed over many years.
By concentrating on companies in our backyard – with headquarters in North America – we benefit from being close to our management teams.
Our Commitment
We are committed to sustainable and responsible investing. This means choosing our businesses wisely and, as stewards of them, ensuring that they make a positive contribution to all of their various stakeholders, including their communities, and the environment.
Not every business we acquire in oriented toward responsible investing at the time when we invest. We consider it an important responsibility, and a privilege, to support them as they evolve.
