Since 1980, GTCR has invested more than $15 billion in over 200 companies.[1] The firm principally invests in high-growth industries, including financial services & technology, healthcare, information services & technology, and growth business services.[2] The fund employs The Leaders Strategy™, which involves recruiting experienced management teams to run their portfolio companies.[3] The firm is based in Chicago and has more than 80 employees, including over 40 investment professionals. HistoryThe company was founded in 1980 as Golder Thoma & Co. by Stanley Golder and Carl Thoma. In the 1970s, Golder built the private equity program at First Chicago Corp.[4] where he is noted primarily for backing Federal Express and for efforts as chairman of the National Venture Capital Association and the National Association of Small Business Investment Companies to change federal laws allowing pensions to invest in private equity.[5][6] Golder Thoma received much of its initial funding from William M. Blair and upon leaving First Chicago, Golder was replaced by John A. Canning, Jr. who would go on to found rival Chicago private equity firm Madison Dearborn. {{history of private equity and venture capital}}In 1984, after recruiting Bryan Cressey to join the firm from First Chicago, the firm's name was changed to Golder Thoma Cressey and with the promotion of Bruce Rauner to partner the firm would come to be known as Golder, Thoma, Cressey, Rauner, Inc. (GTCR), although it would still often be referred to as Golder Thoma.[7] In 1998, disagreements between the senior partners led Golder, Thoma, Cressey, Rauner, Inc. split into two private equity firms. Both firms continue to invest primarily through consolidations of specific industries, referred to as roll-ups:
Investment fundsGTCR invests through a series of private limited partnerships and its investors include a variety of pension funds (e.g., Washington State Investment Board,[12] Pennsylvania State Employee's Retirement System[13]) endowments and other institutional investors. Following its separation from Thoma Cressey (discussed above), GTCR has raised seven private equity funds totaling $20 billion in limited partner commitments:

Under the original application, each investment was expected to adhere to risk standards on its own merits, limiting the ability of investment managers to make any investments deemed potentially risky. Under the revised 1978 interpretation, the concept of portfolio diversification of risk, measuring risk at the aggregate portfolio level rather than the investment level to satisfy fiduciary standards would also be accepted. 6. ^Private Equity Pioneer Golder Dies{{Dead link|date=December 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}.
