How we grow businesses

Throughout its 30+ year history, Apax Partners has been committed to helping businesses through all stages of their development. Apax Funds continue to look for opportunities where they can use their insight into the growth drivers of the underlying business. We believe that this is a more robust source of returns, over the business cycle, than a sole reliance on financial leverage or multiple arbitrage. Over the last ten years, the cumulative annual growth rate of profits across the Apax Funds portfolio was 12% per annum.
