Impressive track record
The Birch Hill team has achieved superior and consistent returns including a 20 percent cumulative average rate of EBITDA growth on actively employed capital since 1995. This record of success led to Birch Hill closing its fourth private equity fund, Birch Hill Equity Partners IV, LP at the beginning of 2011. This fund was capped at $1.04 billion, exceeding its original target of $850 million due to strong interest from both existing and new investors.
