We leverage our deep industry expertise, vast network and experience to drive growth and strengthen management teams. We have advised dozens of institutions and companies as board members in a variety of economic cycles, industries and stages of development. Our experience in the financial services sector creates value for our portfolio companies and investors. We do more than just capital. We create productive partnerships with our portfolio companies, and enduring relationships with our management teams. Our approach is one of aligned interests, shared vision, integrity and hard work. We seek to build world-class organizations and long-term success.
Our Focus
With our sector expertise and experience, we seek superior risk-adjusted returns by applying a hands-on, value-added investment model to our investments within the financial services sector. We understand the substantial opportunities and challenges that exist. That is why we maintain a select number of investments and deploy our collective resources in support of them.
Our Network
It takes the best people to succeed. Our network of entrepreneurs, thought leaders and executives deliver real value to our portfolio, sharing key learnings and insights - in both advisory and operating roles.

Typically, as banks grow, their financial performance improves due to economies of scale. Patriot is focused on providing growth capital to companies, helping them achieve their financial performance, and goals, thereby helping to enhance shareholder value.
