Meet Altera
Investing in the Lower
Middle Market.
We build enduring private portfolios by capitalizing the lower middle market.
Altera is an alternative investment firm dedicated to lower middle market private investments. Our three flagship funds are designed to invest in SBIC Funds, independent sponsor transactions, and alternative asset management firms. We also make thematic investments, where we invest with specialty sponsors and emerging managers – often acting as a highly meaningful limited partner. Just over the last few years, we have worked with many sponsors and invested hundreds of millions of dollars across various private equity, real asset and private credit strategies. Our capital base starts with us internally and then expands to our network of family offices and ultra-high-net-worth investors.
