DIRECT BUSINESS EQUITY & DEBT STRATEGIES

Direct Private Equity Investing

NovaBay actively seeks to invest in companies in a variety of industries where our playbook, expertise, and network can provide immediate and consistent value. Our principals have spent the majority of their careers as investors and have developed a unique eye for an outlier in the market. Combine that expertise with an extensive network at the board level and flexible sources of capital and deal structuring, and you get outsized returns and positive results for our partners and investors.

Debt Syndication Strategies

NovaBay's expertise as an investment bank through NovaBay Capital helps us, as investors, keep a pulse on the credit markets and to continue to develop an already extensive network of debt & credit partners. We actively seek to invest in a variety of structures for businesses at different inflection points. As a capital raising partner with NovaBay Capital, we will at times stretch across the table to the investors seat through NovaBay Investments and put debt strategies together.
