Investment selection. Successful investing begins not only with an active approach to deal sourcing but also requires carefully disciplined "bottom-up" due diligence. Thus, all investment opportunities are analyzed in relation to historical benchmarks, current information from Partners Group's existing portfolios and the data available in Partners Group's proprietary Value Navigator database. This database tracks more than 5'000 own investments in markets in which no public information is available, allowing Partners Group to monitor the performance of individual companies, thus providing the firm with a significant edge when making investment decisions.
