BAIN CAPITAL SPECIAL SITUATIONS OVERVIEW

Bain Capital Special Situations has invested ~$35 billion in more than 900 deals across a balanced geographic mix of investments in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific since its founding in 2002. We provide bespoke capital solutions to meet the diverse needs of companies, entrepreneurs, and asset owners - in all market cycles. The strategy brings together equity and credit expertise, as well as corporate and real asset expertise, to provide solutions which cannot be met by traditional providers. Our dedicated, global team of 125+ investment and portfolio professionals contribute the local expertise and capabilities that enable these diverse investments.

Aviation is one of our key focus areas, both today and through the market cycle. Over our history, we have invested close to $4 billion in Special Situations aviation investments. Aircraft hard assets, including our investments in our Griffin and Titan JVs, have been a particular focus, with close to $2 billion invested in this sub-sector over the past few years. Going forward, we expect to build off our industry-leading track record to continue to grow our presence in aircraft hard assets, including with dedicated capital for this investment strategy.

PORTFOLIO GROUP OVERVIEW

Bain Capital has a dedicated global Portfolio Group within the firm’s Special Situations business. The Portfolio Group is responsible for fund and asset management and leads the strategy and analysis on fund construction, risk, and opportunities for the Global Special Situations business.

The Portfolio Group works side-by-side with Special Situations leadership and deal teams and provides extensive support, whenever and wherever needed on analytical, strategic, and operating issues. These capabilities have helped many Bain Capital companies develop and execute strategies to move swiftly to gain competitive advantage and achieve superior growth.
