Living our values

"Acquiring and selling businesses involves extensive negotiations. As part of this process, I sometimes find that the other side does not understand the meaning of certain provisions in the agreement. In these cases, I 'choose right over easy' and negotiate in a fair and transparent way, as I know our relationship and reputation are assets which we must keep for our long-term success."

Erez's Story

At the age of 21, Erez was called on to salvage a business that was struggling with an unstable cash flow. A few years later, working as a lawyer, he represented the Apax Funds in their sale of Tnuva. Erez enjoyed these two experiences so much that he realised he preferred the finance and investing side of the corporate world to law.
After gaining his MBA and working in investment banking, he decided to join the Apax team, this time as an investment professional.
