Pratt Financial Services is an Atlanta based private equity firm
specializing in the financial services arena, with a particular
focus in community banking, commercial finance, and consumer finance
companies. Pratt Financial is an affiliate of Pratt Holdings, a global manufacturing leader of paper and paper
based packaging products based in Australia and the United States.
Pratt Financial Services makes
investments in financial services related companies that exhibit
strong growth opportunities, experienced management teams, and a
sustainable competitive position in their niche.
Community Banking
We believe community banking is an excellent area for investment,
as the consolidation in the banking arena has created demand by
customers who want a high standard of personalized service that is
most effectively delivered by a small community bank dedicated to
superior customer focus. We will invest in a majority or minority
interest in de novo as well as established community banks.
Commercial/Consumer Finance
In the areas of consumer and commercial finance, the changing
dynamic of credit parameters among the leading financial institutions
has led to a large segment of potential borrowers who are unable to
access capital. Pratt Financial Services is seeking majority and
minority investments in companies that have demonstrated an ability to
effectively manage the risk reward ratio in this sector, yielding
above average returns. |
