Location can be an important consideration, but it does not necessarily define where a firm is active.

Geography is best considered alongside sector focus, company size, and relevant transaction activity.

Not necessarily. A firm’s location does not always define its geographic reach. Many Independent Sponsors based in Pennsylvania are active across multiple regions, while firms based elsewhere may also participate in the Pennsylvania market.
