Bancroft Private Equity

Bancroft Private Equity, established in 1989 and based in the Channel Islands, focuses on private equity investments in various sectors, including telephony, cable television, media, heavy industry, mining, and financial services, among others. Initially, the firm provided mergers and acquisition advice to U.S. companies looking to enter Central and Eastern European markets. In the early 1990s, Bancroft shifted its strategy to making acquisitions for its own account and subsequently launched a series of funds aimed at investing in Eastern Europe and, later, Turkey. Over the years, Bancroft has expanded its geographical focus and diversified its investment portfolio, reflecting its commitment to identifying and capitalizing on opportunities within these regions and industries.
