Our vision: to be the private equity firm of choice

3i's business is conducted through an international network of teams, spread across Europe, the US and Asia. This global network provides market access and competitive advantage for each phase of the investment cycle. View international network>

The ownership model within the private equity markets is capable of delivering returns well in excess of the averages for public markets. Our investment teams are rewarded according to the realised returns they achieve. View business line leaders>

We value our relationships as a source of long-term advantage. Each of our business lines operates according to a partnership model and we manage and encourage partnership behaviours across all our business lines to support the firm's long-term development.

3i's world-wide presence, our long track record, our balance sheet resources and our specialist sector teams are all sources of competitive advantage.
