The Paceline team believes that it is known for the ability to transact in complex situations and also believes that Paceline is a sought-out investor that sees high-quality, targeted deal flow.

The Paceline team believes that it is known both for executing deals with certainty and speed in addition to having a reputation for investing across the balance sheet, all due to their tenure in the investment management industry.
