Frog Capital’s Steven Dunne on purpose-driven investing

I started my career as a chartered accountant and investment banker before deciding that I wanted to get more actively involved in supporting companies. That decision led me to a role as portfolio director at a mid-market private equity firm called Livingbridge, where I got to learn about the various tools portfolio managers can use to influence the businesses they invest in. Eventually I went on to work as the CFO at two different companies (the first a portfolio company at Livingbridge) that were successfully sold. They were both fantastic learning experiences because they spanned periods of tremendous growth as well as considerable challenges, not least of which was navigating the global financial crisis.
