Our Strategies
Buyout
For over two decades, Alliance Holdings has demonstrated excellence in executing a disciplined leveraged buyout strategy, with a focus on acquiring and scaling lower middle-market industrial and manufacturing businesses. This approach has been a cornerstone of our capital deployment, driving consistent growth and delivering exceptional value to our employee shareholders. While our focus has since expanded, we continue to actively manage a select portfolio of companies acquired under this strategy, applying our operational expertise to maximize long-term performance. Today, we have strategically evolved to include private debt and venture capital investments, leveraging our experience to capitalize on a broader range of value creation opportunities.

Venture Capital & Growth
We provide early-stage and growth equity to visionary startups in deep tech, physical security, and defense sectors. Our founder-first approach focuses on exceptional teams with transformative potential, supporting them with both capital and strategic guidance from seed through Series B rounds.
Private Debt
As a flexible capital partner, we invest across asset-backed lending, real estate lending, structured credit, and specialized areas including litigation finance, clean energy, and intellectual property financing. Our adaptable approach delivers creative, value-driven capital solutions while maintaining focus on long-term returns.
ESOP & Tax Strategy Debt
Our unique position as a 100% employee-owned ESOP investment firm allows us to structure highly flexible, tax-efficient capital solutions. We specialize in identifying and unlocking value in cash flow streams trapped in inefficient tax structures, from media royalties to real estate assets.
