Why Perpetual
Our perpetual structure enables us to implement the best strategies to create defensible long-term value without regard to time horizon.
CPC is a company, not a traditional private equity fund
Sustainable competitive advantage derives from long-term investments in innovation, workforce development, adoption of new technologies, and supply chain improvements.
CPC believes deeply in the power of compounding return, and that the best way to grow wealth over time is by investing in great businesses.
