Comvest Partners Celebrates 25 Years of Investment Management Leadership

Since its inception, Comvest has become one of the nation’s premier middle market private investment firms, managing more than $15 billion of assets across tailored private equity, direct lending, and opportunistic credit capital solutions on behalf of investors worldwide.

“Celebrating 25 years of investment management leadership is extremely rewarding,” said Michael Falk, Comvest’s Founder and Executive Chairman. “Comvest began as a private equity investor focused on partnering with entrepreneurs to help drive value creation in their businesses. We launched our direct lending strategy nearly 20 years ago to capitalize on our private equity insights and resources. We have continuously invested in our teams to expand our investment capabilities and scale deployment while remaining steadfast in our investment approach. I am grateful to our Limited Partners, management teams, intermediaries and employees, including many long-tenured, who have been part of our journey.”

The firm’s product line now spans private equity funds, private credit funds, opportunistic credit funds, business development companies, and collateralized loan obligations, among other investment vehicles.

Robert O’Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Comvest Credit Partners, said, “We have been diligent about building our credit business to earn the reputation as a go-to source of flexible non-bank debt financing solutions for both sponsored and non-sponsored middle-market companies. Comvest’s highly collaborative investment strategies, extensive network of executive partners and operating resources, deep sector expertise and high-quality investment team continue to be key success factors in our differentiated strategy.”

Added Maneesh Chawla, Managing Partner and head of Comvest Private Equity, “We are passionate about fostering real partnerships with founders and management teams — leveraging our operational resources to build businesses for lasting growth. The future is bright, and we’re excited about the opportunities ahead.”
