Private Equity

Akin Bay is distinguished from its competitors among boutique investment banking firms by the ability to either sponsor a full buyout of a company or arrange the investment of private equity or subordinated debt in the company.. Akin Bay’s CEO, James B. Rybakoff, is also the General Partner of The Capstone U.S. Buyout Fund, LP (“CBF”) and The Capstone Cayman Buyout Fund, L.P. (“CCBF”) (together, the “Capstone Buyout Funds” or “CBF”); an off- shore based private equity fund, and also Executive Vice President of Capstone Management, Inc. The Capstone Buyout Funds are one of several funds managed by Capstone Management, Inc.  CBF invests in both minority and majority positions in both public and private companies. Akin Bay is one of the only boutique investment banks which has an interest in a private equity fund of significant size.  Akin Bay’s association with CBF offers Akin Bay’s clients the added benefit that Akin Bay can provide not only financial advisory and investment banking services across 40 industries, but in addition invest private equity and subordinated debt.  CBF invests between $5.0 million and $50.0 million per transaction, with companies which have a minimum of $5.0 million in EBITDA over their last fiscal year.
