ProspEquity Partners Announces IB Spin-off

Christopher D. Ramonetti, Managing Partner and Chief Executive Officer of ProspEquity Partners LLC (PEP), and Bryan K. Spaulding, Managing Partner and Chief Compliance Officer, announce that they have completed a spin-off of PEP’s investment banking practice whereby Spaulding will run Spaulding Group Inc. as an investment banking firm focused on M&A, compliance and business brokerage services and Ramonetti will run PEP as a focused private equity group.

“We both view this as a net positive that will position each entity to achieve significant success in identifying, vetting and leveraging promising opportunities for which each is uniquely and exceptionally qualified,” said Ramonetti.

“Spaulding Group will continue to provide superior investment banking services to owners of mid-sized businesses, including founders, high net worth individuals and private equity groups,” commented Spaulding.

Ramonetti announced that ProspEquity Partners is focused on direct investments that have strong intellectual property and unique and scalable value offerings especially in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) space.

ProspEquity Partners works intimately with family offices and other independent sponsor limited partners to identify and invest growth equity in direct investment opportunities, generally between $3M and $30M. PEP utilizes its ecosystem of expertise and access to aggressively scale proven product or service offerings toward a major exit through initial public offering or strategic acquisition, Ramonetti explained.
