Leichtman, Lauren — Levine Leichtman Capital Partners
Co-Founder and Co-Chairperson of the Executive Committee
Levine Leichtman Capital Partners
THE LATEST: Levine Leichtman&s investment in Dutch consumer education brand Squla was named deal of the year for 2019 by the Association for Corporate Growth Holland. The firm also expanded its European presence last year by opening a new office in Stockholm, hiring new professionals in its offices in The Hague and London, and moving to a larger location in London to accommodate growth.
BACKGROUND: Cofounded by Leichtman and her husband, Arthur Levine, in 1984, the private equity firm closed its sixth fund last year, an oversubscribed, $2.5 billion investment vehicle. Its fifth fund, which had $1.65 billion of capital commitments, was used to acquire 11 portfolio companies. The firm has invested in more than 80 middle-market companies in several industries, including consumer and branded products, health care, education, engineered products and franchises. Leichtman has been a private equity investor for more than 35 years, overseeing the company's investment activities and institutional fundraising. She also chairs Levine Leichtman's investment committee.
