Overview of the Bridgepoint Capital V Fund

Bridgepoint Capital (BDC) represents the Lower Mid-Market strategy of the Bridgepoint Group, a major player in European private equity that has already participated in previousAltaroc funds. While the flagship Bridgepoint VII fund targets companies valued between €250 million and €1 billion, BDC V focuses on smaller companies valued between €50 million and €250 million. This positioning provides access to a segment with high growth potential, while benefiting from the support of a structured and experienced large-cap organization.One of BDC’s key strengths lies in this competitive advantage: unlike small independent funds, it draws on the resources, sector expertise, and processes of a large group, which significantly enhances its ability to source deals, provide operational support, and create value. This combination of mid-market agility and the power of a large-cap platform largely explains its performance.The BDC V fund targets a size of €2 billion, which may be exceeded given strong investor demand. It invests primarily in high-growth companies in the services, technology, and healthcare sectors, with an opportunistic approach in consumer goods. This sector diversification aligns withAltaroc overall strategy, focused on promising and resilient segments. Bridgepoint Capital’s track record is particularly strong. The mature BDC I, II, and III funds have delivered an average return of 2.6 times net committed capital and a IRR of 30%, with further upside potential for some recent funds. This consistent performance, combined with strong investment discipline, positions BDC as a leading player in the European lower mid-market segment.
