The ability to add value through operational excellence is a necessity in successfully investing in under-managed, distressed and turnaround situations.  Deep and experienced operational support is a competitive advantage of Hunt Special Situations Group throughout all stages of the investment process. Hunt Special Situations Group’s network of operating partners is a critical and fundamental part of the investment strategy.

Through the extensive network and relationships of the broader Hunt organization, Hunt Special Situations Group has developed a network of operating partners with deep experience in a variety of industries, functional areas and operating roles.  They are leveraged in three ways:

• Identify and source transactions
• Assist with due diligence and transaction execution
• Provide post-investment support in either an operational or board capacity

In addition, Hunt Special Situations Group has extensive contacts within the broader turnaround community including turnaround and crisis managers, financing sources, bankruptcy counsel, workout groups and financial/restructuring advisors. Hunt Special Situations Group continually builds and fosters these relationships through its involvement in professional organizations such as the Turnaround Management Association (www.turnaround.org).
