Investment Overview

Monroe Engineering was an investment alongside AEA Investors, a leading US mid-market buyout fund. Monroe is a provider of mission-critical hardware components to a diverse set of original equipment manufacturers. The company supplies a broad suite of engineered products, including fasteners, casters, hinges and wire/cable assemblies that are mission-critical to customers’ final product performance and require technical consultation. The company is a leading business with a one-stop shop offering, providing simplification to component design and procurement, to diverse end markets. We believe this investment provided an opportunity to invest in platform growth, alongside AEA Investors, a leading private equity manager with a core focus on this segment.
