Our Focus is Helping Companies Succeed.

Founded in 1988, Olympus manages over $3.1 billion on behalf of corporate pension plans, public retirement systems, university endowment funds, and the executives of Olympus' portfolio companies. The majority of our limited partners have been investors with Olympus for over 15 years, and Olympus Growth Fund V, our latest offering, has committed capital of $1.5 billion.

In order to maximize the time spent working with each of our portfolio companies, we limit new investments to only three or four each year, and our preferred investment size ranges from $20 million for growth capital deals to $300 million or more for buyouts. In addition to pecuniary resources, Olympus offers several other critical elements to help its management partners reach their goals.
