Private Equity


MAJOR LEAGUE INVESTORS: PRIVATE EQUITY'S PRO SPORTS TIES

By Jordan Rubio & James Thorne
September 6, 2023
Private equity sports investment is on the rise. As leagues have eased ownership
rules, dealmakers spy opportunities to gain outsized returns and cultural
influence.

It's no wonder why: US sports teams' valuations have grown faster than the S&P
500 in recent decades, prompting firms like Arctos Sports Partners and Redbird
Capital Partners to amass portfolios of minority stakes in teams. 

This dashboard tracks every connection between North American men's pro sports
teams and PE firms and partners. The NFL wasn't included because it doesn't
allow PE ownership. Did we miss something? Send feedback.
 


Jessica Hamlin, Jacob Robbins and Emily Burleson contributed to the reporting
for this piece.
