Altra has an opportunistic investment approach, looking preferably to invest in established companies with proven business models, operating mainly in countries in the Andean Region and Central America, with a substantial value creation potential resulting from operational optimization, accelerated growth, and/or an industry consolidation process. In addition, Altra looks to invest in companies having – or in the process of developing – sustainable competitive advantages in their primary markets and/or solid position/brands in the market, providing products and services with high added value. Altra looks for majority stake positions in its investments or, in case of minority positions, strong shareholder rights and pre-established exit options, only investing wherever there is a clear exit option after the value opportunity has been captured.
