BROOKWOOD FINANCIAL PARTNERS, LLC EXPANDS GLOBAL REACH WITH NEW LONDON OFFICE
The new London office strengthens Brookwood's presence in Europe and the Middle East , providing closer proximity to its expanding base of international capital partners. Since its founding in 1993, Brookwood has invested over $1.8 billion in equity on behalf of some of the world's most sophisticated investors, including sovereign wealth funds, global banks, endowments, pension plans, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals. The firm's diverse portfolio spans over $4.9 billion in total assets, including commercial real estate, operating businesses, and a national convenience store network via its Yesway affiliate.
Brookwood's investment in Yesway, a top-tier U.S. convenience store operator, exemplifies its differentiated, hands-on approach to private equity. What began as a 10-store acquisition has evolved into a significant regional platform, driven by a robust acquisition, new store build, and integration strategy. This success reflects Brookwood's core capabilities: identifying overlooked assets, applying operational expertise, and executing strategic roll-ups to unlock long-term value. Unlike firms that rely primarily on financial engineering, Brookwood takes a thesis-driven approach rooted in deep sector insight and active operational involvement.
With a permanent presence in London , we are pleased to deepen our connections with institutional investors across Europe , the Middle East , and Asia ," said Thomas N. Trkla , Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Brookwood. "This expansion reflects our ongoing growth and our commitment to our global investor base."
