Thoughts / Opinions on 7Ridge?

Appears they are a pure play financial market infrastructure (in non-FIG terms this is basically stock exchanges, trading execution, clearing and settlement ecosystem and some adjacencies) growth equity / private equity firm.

From what can be gleaned from their website, they have 10 IPs of which 8 are MDs and they have one associate in London and one in New York.

Most of the seniors appear to come from very senior industry backgrounds (founder is ex-Deutsche Boerse CEO / UBS CEO of Investment Bank etc) and seem to be very focused on operational improvements. They appear to not have a single fund but instead deploy in single-asset vehicles and have all of the big exchanges as co-investors.

I cover this space at an elite boutique and overheard the name when my MD was discussing it with a client. He seems to hold it in extremely high regard. Any thoughts on industry perception? Presume they don't use a headhunter.
