A search fund is similar to a private. equity firm that raises capital to acquire companies except that the managers intend to take an active position in running the acquired companies.

A search fund is a pool of private equity raised from high-net-worth investors who believe that management has the ability to wisely select and operate acquired companies.

Business brokerage firms such as Pacific Business Advisors work with both private equity firms and search funds when the acquisition price of a business being offered for sale is likely to exceed four million dollars.
