RAF Equity, based in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, is a private equity firm focused on investments in North American businesses with an EBITDA of US$5–20 million. The firm seeks to form deep partnerships with companies led by strong management teams with a history of growth and profitability and potential for acceleration.
