Our Values

Integrity

Foursan seeks to build long-term relationships with its investors and partners based on trust and clear communications, unencumbered by conflicts of interest or misaligned objectives. Foursan thus brings the strictest levels of integrity to the relationship with its investing partners and ensures that its own interests are aligned with those of its partners.

Professionalism

With experience and success at leading global private equity firms, investment banks and international law firms, the Foursan team applies the strictest analytical standards in all investment situations. Rigorous analysis and technical know-how – a hallmark of the world’s most successful private equity funds – are a key part of Foursan’s value proposition.

Building partnerships

Foursan believes that creating extraordinary value from private equity investments in a diversified set of industries and countries requires building partnerships with strong, stable investors with local knowledge and/or specific industry expertise. This partnership allows both parties to benefit from the strengths of the other and provides a source of unique and attractive transactions.
