A location note up front: CVC's true global headquarters is in St Helier, Jersey (a European/Channel Islands jurisdiction), which has no matching option in this directory's location schema. Rather than force an inaccurate Philippine or generic-Asia location, this entry uses CVC's actual Asia-Pacific regional headquarters — Hong Kong (Suite 3503, Two Exchange Square) — flagged explicitly here so this isn't mistaken for the firm's real global HQ. CVC traces its roots to 1981 as Citicorp Venture Capital, spun off as an independent firm in 1993 under founder Rolly van Rappard, and is now led by CEO Rob Lucas; it has been listed on Euronext Amsterdam since April 2024 and reports roughly €212 billion in assets under management (mid-2026) across private equity, credit, secondaries, and infrastructure strategies, with over 1,500 employees and around 30 offices worldwide. CVC has a genuine, substantial, and sustained Philippine investment track record — one of the deepest of any firm profiled in this batch. Confirmed Philippine deals include a roughly 15% stake in Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC) for about US$115 million (2011); an investment in Fast Logistics Group to support Philippine expansion (2020, exited 2026); backing for Landers Superstore's branch-network expansion (2021); and, most recently, a majority 63.94% stake in hospital operator The Medical City (TMC), completed via tender offer in September 2025 through the roughly US$4.5 billion CVC Capital Partners Asia V fund. It has also invested regionally in Southeast Asia, including a 15% stake in Indonesian hospital chain Siloam International Hospitals (2016).

A sourcing note before the profile itself: an initial search led to a different, seemingly inactive site (sierramadre.vc, describing a vague "Industrial Evolution" thesis with almost no accessible content) — cross-checking confirmed this is likely an unrelated or dormant project, not the real entity behind this name in the Philippine market. The firm actually matching "Sierra Madre" as an investor here is Sierra Madre Advisers, a Makati-headquartered private equity firm founded in 2015 (per PitchBook) and led by Managing Partners Danny Lizares, Martin Lorenzo, and Alasdair Thomson, who together describe roughly 60 years of combined operating and investment experience. Its office is at 1F First Lucky Place, 2259 Chino Roces Avenue Extension, Makati. Sierra Madre is explicitly Philippines-focused, branding itself "Investing in Philippine Potential," and backs founder-led and family-owned Philippine companies with flexible capital for growth, succession, buyouts, or carve-outs. Its named portfolio spans logistics (Ximex Delivery Express), staffing/technology (TeamQuest Technology), accounting/business services (Frontline Accounting), technology (Shellsoft Technology, Courxera Holdings), agriculture (Excelsior Farms), and hospitality (Mosaic Hospitality Solutions). The firm reports 15+ successful exits and states a 100% founder-retention rate across its portfolio.
