Buying companies is easy - the key is integration

Citation CEO speaks to Rainmakers as private equity backed buy-and-build acquires Canadian company

Hello Rainmakers,

There are no shortage of buy and build backed private equity companies grabbing the headlines at the moment. I think this is one to definitely keep an eye on. We were lucky enough to get some time with Chris Morris, CEO of Citation, backed by Hg and KKR, who explains how they avoid the clangers of a bad deal.

It’s fascinating stuff, and contains some really good insights into how Citation’s deals integration team works and the corporate history of the business.
