Waud Capital Partners

Good morning -

Does anyone have any experience with Waud Capital Partners out of Chicago? Are they a strong middle market shop? It sounds like they did really well in 2008-2010 and continue to do well raising capital. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks.

What was said above- great fund with great people and they've done very well for themselves so far. You can track the performance of one of the companies in the portfolio (ACHC) which they still have an ownership interest in. Spoke to them during the recruiting process a few years ago and seemed like a solid platform- the one thing you should have to prove is ties to Chicago and why healthcare especially interests you (kind of a disproportionate part of their portfolio).
