Mr. Schwenk is the Chief Financial Officer for Argosy Capital. He has over 25 years experience as an executive and Chief Financial Officer for nine high growth, private equity backed operating companies. Mr. Schwenk raised over $750 million dollars in senior and subordinated debt and public and private equity to facilitate the formation and growth of these businesses. Many of these companies were conceived as business strategies and grew to several hundred million dollars in revenues through acquisition and organic growth. Mr. Schwenk performed business valuations, due diligence and business plans for more than thirty acquisitions. He significantly improved operating results during periods of high growth through business planning and analysis and financial and operating management. Several of these investments resulted in successful liquidity events through an initial public offering or sale to a larger private equity firm.
