Supportive & Collaborative Investing
Supportive and Collaborative (S&C) Investment is a strategic alternative to traditional activist investing. S&C investors create value alongside company leadership through operational improvements, capital restructuring, and growth acceleration.
Activist investing prioritizes quick fixes
M&A, board shakeups, cost cuts
Ignores long-term transformation
Temporary stock bumps, long-term underperformance
Disrupts leadership, creates operational instability
The majority of companies targeted by activists underperform in the long run, lagging behind broader market benchmarks like the S&P 500.
