Farol Asset Management, LP is an independent private equity firm, founded in 2011, based in New York City. It operates as a partner-owned, lower middle market investor that focuses on direct equity investments in essential, stable businesses with differentiated positions, aiming to acquire them at discounted valuations in cases of broken auctions or through proprietary deal flow. The firm emphasizes sourcing opportunities from experienced next-generation fund sponsors with proven value-creation track records, and it partners with minority- and women-led firms in the majority of its investments to address diversity and inclusion in private equity. With a collective deep background in investments, Farol has deployed substantial equity across its portfolio and seeks to leverage its network to identify value in smaller, essential enterprises. In terms of its structure and approach, the firm operates within the venture capital and private equity principal landscape and maintains a relatively small team in New York, focusing on strategic partnerships and targeted investments rather than broad-based fundraising. A notable recent development includes a collaboration in 2016 with ICV Partners to complete the acquisition of Universal Turbine Parts, LLC, reflecting its approach to co-investment and strategic partnerships.
