Ridgepost Capital

Ridgepost’s Chairman and CEO, Luke Sarsfield, joined Jonathan Braude on the PE in a Pod Podcast to discuss how the firm is finding opportunities in today’s complex macroeconomic backdrop.   Luke explains that periods of uncertainty often create compelling entry points, with dislocations driving activity in areas like secondaries and credit as some investors seek liquidity or reduce risk exposure. In this environment, disciplined investors can capitalize on pockets of mispricing, particularly in the less intermediated middle and lower middle market.   To learn more about Ridgepost’s investment approach and platform, you can listen to the conversation here: https://lnkd.in/eW3rTReS

Ridgepost’s Chairman and CEO, Luke Sarsfield, connected with S&P Global to discuss why retail investors are turning to private markets to diversify their portfolios.   Luke explains that public markets represent a shrinking share of the economy, making it harder to capture broad U.S. growth through stocks and bonds alone as more companies stay private. As a result, exposure to alternatives is becoming increasingly important, especially as many innovation-driven sectors like AI, energy, and space remain largely private.   To learn more about Luke’s perspective on the role of private markets in portfolio construction, you can read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gEc3fa64

Our Chairman & CEO, Luke Sarsfield, was featured on the latest episode of the Private Equity Value Creation Podcast.   In a wide-ranging conversation with host Shiv Narayanan, CEO of How To SaaS, Luke explained how Ridgepost’s platform model serves a key competitive advantage in the firm’s approach to investing in the middle and lower middle market. With strategies that focus on different, but complementary, parts of the private markets ecosystem, Ridgepost is able to create a flywheel effect through cross-platform collaboration that drives more durable outcomes in a fragmented landscape.   For more on Ridgepost’s platform and our approach to creating value on behalf of our investors, you can listen to the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/eSx-M-Gj

Ridgepost Capital Chairman & CEO Luke Sarsfield sat down with FundFire’s Justin Mitchell to discuss Ridgepost’s recent acquisition of Stellus Capital Management, LLC. Luke shares how the acquisition strengthens Ridgepost’s presence in private credit, which is bolstered by our strategic focus on the middle and lower middle market, where our network, data, and sponsor relationships can help expand deal flow and drive strong investment outcomes. He also addresses the current lending environment and explains why the lower middle market continues to present a compelling imbalance of opportunity versus available capital.

Ridgepost’s Chairman and CEO, Luke Sarsfield, recently joined the “Unlocking Alpha in the Middle Market” panel alongside Michael Chiulli, CFA, CPA, Brad Bernstein, and Erol Uzumeri at SuperReturn North America.   The conversation focused on how managers are differentiating themselves in an increasingly competitive mid-market, including sourcing high-quality investments, navigating a more complex exit environment, and identifying which corners of the market offer opportunities to deliver compelling risk-adjusted returns.   Luke explained how Ridgepost’s data advantage and integrated platform enable a thematic approach to investing within the lower-middle market, where experienced managers can capitalize on inefficiencies to drive outsized value.   Thank you to SuperReturn for hosting Luke for this thoughtful conversation.
