Performance Improvement
Equity sponsors no longer achieve targeted results from financial engineering
alone. Operational improvements that generate tangible improvements in
sales growth, cost reduction, and working capital management are critical
to meeting return targets. Those improvements must take place and earn
results early in the investment horizon. And when a portfolio company
is struggling, sponsors have limited time to diagnose the root causes
and implement corrective actions.
TRG’s Performance Improvement practice, is specifically tailored
to help equity sponsors make sound investments, establish plans to capture
value, and refocus businesses that are underperforming. The practice enables
TRG to add value in a broad range of business situations and before liquidity
requirements have robbed management and sponsors of the opportunity to
turn around their investments.

professionals to company situations and applies that expertise in short,
results-focused engagements. TRG’s Performance Improvement practice
