Industry Focus

Over nearly three decades, we have developed deep expertise in certain sectors and regional areas, as well as an understanding of revenue growth drivers that can accelerate a company's growth profile. Evaluating sectors and subsectors across regions helps target our efforts in identifying the most attractive companies with the highest growth potential, and also greatly assists our companies as they consider their growth strategies.

A few, very brief examples of themes we are focused on by sector include the following:

• Financial Services - the electronification, consolidation, and increasing sophistication of capital markets globally
  
• Media & Consumer - the massive shift from off line to online media transforming advertising, marketing, and information flow
  
• Healthcare - the increased need to apply technology for cost containment and better health-related outcomes
  
• Enterprise Solutions - the need to improve the quality, cost, and efficiency of broad as well as highly specialized business processes
  
• Communications & Electronics - the continued broad global demand for networking and communication; the increasing integration of software in hardware devices
• Energy and Resources - Global transformation of supply and demand dynamics for critical resources
