Private Equity
The Marchbanks Company’s heritage within the private equity asset class began with Greg Marchbanks’ CEO role at Prime Cable, a cable television operator that successfully sold all of its cable systems in the late 1990’s and 2000. As Prime Cable diversified in its last few years beyond cable television, Greg and his partners at Prime invested in private companies directly but also in funds managed by private equity fund managers. That business is still in operation today, operating as Prime IX Investments. Prime has played an advisor and sponsor role with regard to two private equity fund managers, Harris Preston & Partners and Owner Resource Group. Greg Marchbanks has played a similar role for Catalyst Investors (New York).
