Company Profile
Platinum Equity is a Beverly Hills–headquartered private-equity firm founded in 1995 by investor Tom Gores. Over three decades the firm has grown into one of the world’s largest buy-out specialists, stewarding roughly US $48 billion in assets and more than 60 active portfolio companies.
The firm’s trademark “M&A&O®” strategy knits together mergers, acquisitions and intense, hands-on operations. Platinum focuses on corporate carve-outs, public-to-private deals and other complex situations where it can deploy in-house operating experts to accelerate turnarounds and bolt-on growth. Its funds are flexible—writing equity cheques from the lower-middle market up to multibillion-dollar global platforms.
Sector-agnostic by design, Platinum Equity targets businesses in industrials, consumer & retail, technology, healthcare, media-telecom, finance and natural resources, with transactions completed across North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. More than 360 professionals operate from six offices—Los Angeles, Boston, Greenwich, New York, London and Singapore—sourcing, executing and managing deals worldwide.
