8/3/17

Southfield Capital, a leading lower middle market private equity firm, announced today its final close of Southfield Capital II at approximately $200 million in capital commitments, reaching its hard cap and exceeding its target of $175 million in capital commitments.

Stonington Capital Advisors acted as the exclusive global placement agent for Southfield’s fundraise.

Fund II was oversubscribed, attracting commitments from a diverse group of institutional investors including US, European and Middle Eastern family offices, fund of funds, insurance companies, public pensions and a private bank. Fund II will continue Southfield Capital’s strategy of making buyout investments in high-growth, lower middle market companies in the outsourced business services and specialty finance sectors.

Southfield Managing Partner Andy Levison commented; “We are grateful for the confidence and support our highly respected investors and look forward to continuing our efforts on their behalf in the lower middle market”.

Justin Garrod, a Managing Partner of Stonington commented: “We are elated at the success of this fundraise and believe the demand from such a blue chip list of investors speaks to the pedigree and track record of the Southfield Capital team.”

Dana Pawlicki added: “We believe Southfield’s success also evidences a continuing shift of institutional investors seeking higher returns by investing in the lower middle market where valuations have remained more stable and growth opportunities are more abundant.”

Proskauer Rose acted as legal counsel to Southfield Capital.
