KPS has worked constructively with most of the major industrial and service unions in the United States and Canada. We have sponsored many transactions in partnership with unions, and unions bring a significant number of quality investment opportunities to our attention every year. Unions work with KPS because of our respect for the collective bargaining process, our long history of working constructively with unions in connection with difficult financial transactions and buyouts, and our successful track record in creating viable and profitable going concerns.
KPS expects that many of our investments will involve meaningful participation from a company’s employees in the restructuring and turnaround process. Central to our approach is the creation of participatory, communicative and empowered corporate cultures that encourage employee input and involvement in all levels of decision-making. For example, while KPS is a control investor, several of our portfolio companies have employee representation on boards of directors.
Our approach has resulted in the successful turnaround of numerous companies and stands in sharp contrast to the confrontational approach often relied upon by other investors in distressed situations.
