Many equity players participate in quick turnaround funds that can't tolerate an unexpected turn of events - something faced by even the best of businesses. While Wafra Partners seeks to help its partners avoid marketplace pitfalls, it wouldn't be the middle-market without a few surprises now and then. That's where Wafra Partners' experience in this segment of the market makes a real difference.

"The folks at Wafra Partners are reasonable people. The nature of their funding is more patient - and they don't saddle you with unrealistic ROI expectations. Before entering our deal, I asked a number of references how Wafra Partners responds when things aren't going well. 'With patience' was the consensus response - and I certainly found that to be true. While Three V Health has been very successful, we've had a few 'unplanned moments.' Wafra Partners helped us stay the course. If their capital didn't have its patient characteristics, I'm not sure they could've responded in the best interest of the company."
