Mousse Partners is the single family offce of the founders of the iconic fashion brand Chanel. Now, the family office is targeting private equity opportunities in Asia, besides other investments. The focus of its Asian private equity strategy lies on developed and developed markets. Deal type-wise, the focus lies on middle-market buyouts and leveraged buyouts. China’s onshore market has especially caught the eye of the family office. One reason for targeting China is the loan prime rate lying below the US levels. The Wertheimer single family office favors middle-market buyouts with values between $50-500M.
