Nestled deep within the labyrinthine corridors of a once-grand bank building – now repurposed as an office park for the world’s most esoteric financial entities – stands Cointegration Partners, a private equity powerhouse that defies gravity and common sense alike.
Our humble beginnings can be traced back to a drunken bet between two investment bankers over who could create the most impenetrable acronym-laden fund name. Little did they know that ‘COINtegration’ – a statistical concept for time series analysis – would become our calling card, even if it does sound like a poor man’s ‘QUANTum FUNDamentals’.
Our strategy? We take an unwavering approach to finding opportunities that are as rare as a hedgehog sighting in the Sahara. We invest in companies whose assets are so intertwined, they could be mistaken for Siamese twins, and then proceed to yank them apart like a pair of unwilling acrobats.
And when it comes to risk management? Oh, we’ve got that covered. According to our actuaries, the chances of our entire portfolio going bankrupt simultaneously are roughly equivalent to finding a unicorn in the Vatican archives – improbable, but not impossible. But don’t worry; we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it (or maybe when the next hedgehog shows up).
Now, if you’ll excuse us, there’s a deal on the table that requires our undivided attention – it seems someone has misplaced a comma in a 300-page contract. We’re certain we can make ourselves understood without it, but then again, repetition and patience have always been our strongest suits.
