Growth Equity: an investment alternative that keeps owners in control of their business

BDC Capital is helping mid-market growth businesses become Canadian champions through its new Growth Equity offering. As a long-term minority investor, we provide the founders of high-growth companies the ability to monetize a part of their accumulated wealth through purchasing shares in their business. As well, we inject the capital they need to become world-class leaders in their industry while maintaining control of their business. Through forging a long-term partnership, our clients also benefit from our expert guidance at the Board of Directors and operational levels, as well as our capacity to provide the capital they need to grow.
