Funds advised by PEP have made over 25 operating company investments, and over 70 bolt-on acquisitions at the company level. The 10 current PEP group operating companies span several industries including energy, consumer products, entertainment and basic financial services industries, [with a total combined enterprise value over A$8.5bn]. Together, these businesses employ over 50,000 people across Australia and New Zealand.

- At a glance, the current article appears to be much more neutral. However, if there are any errors or major omissions, I would suggest pointing them out separately to help volunteers maintain the page. CorporateM (Talk) 18:31, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
COI
Removed the COI template - looks like, from the name in the single edit username, it was an employee correcting the AUM number, and actually lowering it, so doesn't look inappropriately promotional to me.BubbaJoe123456 (talk) 18:59, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
Some proposed changes
| | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. [See below] |
Information to be removed:
Explanation of issue: Have modified Investment section to provide a more accurate picture of companies PEP has worked with. Links to support have been provided.

Clarification requested
- With regards to removing the information, the request does not state what it is about the information that is incorrect.
- With regards to the addition of information, the request does not state what it is about those investment funds, which requires their being listed in the article. Although many businesses do list individual investments, many more do not list this type of rote information. Certain businesses (less than 20 years old) on the otherhand, having a lack of information about themselves to add to an article, will attempt to place this information in order to fill article space. These listings should not be done merely for that reason. Please clarify the necessity of this information to be added here.
- Additionally, the references are formatted as Citation Style 1, but the
|title=parameter is missing. The article itself appears not to have chosen one particular style to use. This should be done before information is added to the article, so that anything added will align with whatever style is chosen.
Regards, Spintendo 11:41, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
- Standardized the citation format in the article. BubbaJoe123456 (talk) 12:25, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
Not done it is not editorially favorable to have an extensive list of funds/products/clients/employees/customers in an encyclopedia article about a company. VQuakr (talk) 03:21, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

16 April 2019 - Update requested
I have deleted the subjective words "more notable" in the description of historical investments. Also, I'd like to update the content under the Investments heading to show current company set. This is just a sample, not an extensive list. Please insert: Some of the firm’s current investments include education provider ACG [1], Patties Foods [2], iNova Pharmaceuticals [3], medical devices group LifeHealthcare [4], smart metering company IntelliHUB [5] and Evolution Healthcare [6].StaceyCretella (talk) 03:43, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
Update to investments - Sept 2019
Making an update to Investments section to include sold assets:
PEP has also successfully exited some major investments.
The firm realised a strong return from the sale of New Zealand honey supplier Manuka Health which it exited in 2018 for $NZ300 million.[7] PEP first purchased Manuka in 2015 and made key changes including expanding the company’s operations and leading an industry reform to standardise honey grades, allowing better transparency on quality and reducing counterfeiting. This work gained industry recognition in 2018 for quality management and responsible investing.[8]
Other recent investment exits include the sale of Allied Pinnacle to Japan’s Nisshin Foods[9] in February 2019 and the exit of NZ private education provider ACG[10] in late 2018. StaceyCretella (talk) 08:37, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
Update to investments - Apr 2020
After this line: Some of the firm’s current investments include Patties Foods,[7] iNova Pharmaceuticals,[8] medical devices group LifeHealthcare,[9] smart metering company IntelliHUB,[10] and Evolution Healthcare.[11]
Insert:
More recently, PEP made two further acquisitions toward the end of 2019. It purchased the Asia-Pacific segment of NYSE-listed towing and trailering equipment manufacturer Horizon Global [11] and it also acquired community energy network provider WINconnect from private operators.[12] WINconnect is the third deal for the firm’s Secure Assets Fund.

New changes to PEP Wikipedia page - COI Contribution
Hi all! My name is Lizzie PEP and I'm a current employee of Pacific Equity Partners (PEP).
I'd love to suggest a number of updates to the PEP Wikipedia page. I am pinging a couple of recent editors of the article to assist with this. BubbaJoe123456, VQuakr.
I want to closely follow all Wikipedia COI processes, so let me know if there is more I can do to align with best practice.
I am also very keen to hear feedback on the proposed changes (the first of 5 proposed changes I have copied below). Let me know what you think, and if you have any tips about how best to proceed!
"Pacific Equity Partners (PEP) is an Australasian alternative investment firm that manages multiple alternative asset classes, including private equity, infrastructure, credit, and other alternative investment strategies.
As of [March 31st, 2022], assets under management ("AUM") were A$8.6B, making PEP the largest Australasia-based private equity firm."
Cheers,
Lizzie PEP Lizzie PEP (talk) 04:57, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
Updates to PEP article
Dear fellow editors, after corresponding with senior editors on Wikipedia and taking into account their feedback, I have implemented the changes proposed in messages above to this article. Part of my correspondence was with user @Cote d'Azur, and it is at their recommendation I make the changes. Please do let me know what, if anything should be amended - I am happy to be involved in a discussion about changing what has been enacted. Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 23:13, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Lizzie PEP: I've reverted your proposed update, [3] in its entirety because to me it looked unsalvageably promotional. Unsourced sentences like
Uniquely the firm is known for achieving high investment returns by focusing on business transformation and profit growth, rather than financial engineering
are huge red flags. If there are relatively minor, quantitative updates that can be directly sourced to independent quality sources it might be more beneficial to focus on those and leave the bulk prose to someone unconnected to the article. It is extremely difficult to write neutrally about a topic with which we are closely connected. @DGG and Cote d'Azur: if you've vetted this already elsewhere and disagree, please let me know and let's discuss. VQuakr (talk) 23:29, 8 November 2022 (UTC)- @VQuakr Thanks for your message. I have tried my upmost to act in compliance with COI stipulations and I really appreciate your time looking at this. I’m sorry to hear you’re not happy with aspects of the article and am happy to wait for another administrator to approve the bulk text once anything that comes across as overly promotional has been excised.
- Would you be happy for me to personally make smaller quantitative updates in the meantime? Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 04:07, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- @VQuakr following my previous message, I have made some quantitative edits as well as a rework of the third paragraph. I hope that is suitable, looking forward to future collaboration. Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 03:08, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
- @VQuakr I have also amended the first paragraph of the article. Let me know if you have any queries. Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 03:11, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- @VQuakr: I have amended the second paragraph of the article, adding emphasis on firm foundation and two citations to support. Feedback appreciated. Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 05:09, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
- @VQuakr I have also amended the first paragraph of the article. Let me know if you have any queries. Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 03:11, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- @VQuakr following my previous message, I have made some quantitative edits as well as a rework of the third paragraph. I hope that is suitable, looking forward to future collaboration. Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 03:08, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
- @VQuakr I have made two further amendments to the investments category - added a paragraph about buyout transactions and a small quantitative tweak to the second (existing) paragraph. Let me know if there are any issues with the changes. Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 04:09, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Lizzie PEP, can you explain please why you removed the mention of REDgroup Retail with this edit? Meticulo (talk) 15:24, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Meticulo, I’m hoping to update this section, including condensing information where possible. Removal of that sentence was part of that process, but happy for this section to be reinstated if you think more content is best? A side note, I am still new to the Wikipedia space - you can find more information about me and my edits to this article in threads above or on my talk page. Any guidance would be appreciated! Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 06:47, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for replying, Lizzie. To be blunt, my guidance would be that you really shouldn't be editing the article at all. It's good that you've declared a conflict of interest, and a willingness to act in compliance with any stipulations that apply. However, the behavioral guideline for conflicts of interest says "COI editors are strongly discouraged from editing affected articles directly". I'd also suggest reading the Plain and simple conflict of interest guide, which says of COI editing that "The safest way to avoid it is simply to never make direct edits to live articles". But if you've found editing Wikipedia to be interesting, perhaps you could help instead with pages where there isn't a conflict of interest? Meticulo (talk) 14:21, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

Comprehensive Edit Request for Pacific Equity Partners - COI
| | Part of an edit requested by an editor with a conflict of interest has been implemented. |
Hi, I'm LizziePEP, a current employee of Pacific Equity Partners. You can find out more about me on my user page, and through my current contributions on the Pacific Equity Partners Talk page. I have endeavoured to follow all COI and paid editor guidelines as closely as possible - let me know if I can be doing more to be fully compliant and transparent.
I'm proposing a number of changes and amendments to the current Pacific Equity Partners article, and would greatly appreciate the feedback and comments of experienced Wikipedia edits as to what should be tweaked in my contributions below. I have tried to reach out to previous article editors (with little success) and through the Wikipedia Help feature an editor recommended I submit an edit request for the article to get the input of other editors. Do let me know what you think.
- What I think should be changed:
I propose the following rework to the introductory section of the article (the first three paragraphs):
Pacific Equity Partners (PEP) is an Australasian alternative investment firm that manages multiple alternative asset classes, including private equity, infrastructure, credit, and other alternative investment strategies.
As of March 31st, 2022, assets under management ("AUM") were A$8.6B,[13] making PEP the largest Australasia-based private equity firm.[14]
The firm was founded in 1998 by Tim Sims AM, Rickard Gardell, Simon Pillar and Paul McCullagh. Tim, Rickard and Simon previously worked together and held senior executive positions at Bain & Co, where they advised corporations on strategy and profit optimisation.[15][16] In 2019, Tim Sims AM was made a member in the general division of the Order of Australia (AM) for significant service to the community through philanthropic initiatives.[17]
The firm was the first institutional private equity firm established in Australasia. It was initially set up as a joint venture with US private equity firm Bain Capital,[18] which at the time was led by Mitt Romney, US politician and Republican Party's nominee for president of the United States in the 2012 election.[19]
Since its founding, PEP has completed over 100 transactions with combined aggregate value of A$43B and has generated a gross IRR of 44% across its funds.[20]
Under the 'Investments' heading, I suggest inserting the following
PEP has led eight public to private buyout transactions in Australasia including Spotless, Patties, LifeHealthcare, Zenith Energy and Citadel, which is more than any domestic or international private equity firm operating in Australasia.[21]
The firm has been a recipient of various Australian and international private equity industry awards including Firm of the Year, Best LBO Deal of the Year, Responsible Investment of the Year and Private Equity Firm of the Year, as well as being included in the Top 20 Consistent Performers Globally by Preqin.[22][23]
The paragraph beginning 'PEP has made more than 30 operating company investments...' to follow. After that, insert the following paragraph:
Among the firm's largest historical investments include Spotless,[24] Link Group,[25] Veda,[26] Allied Pinnacle and Manuka Health,[27] which have each received awards and accolades from industry body Australian Investment Council.
"Some of the firm's current investments..." paragraph is out of date. I suggest updating to the following
Firm’s current investments include Intellihub,[28] Modern Star,[29] iNova Pharmaceuticals,[30] Healthe Care and Zenith Energy.[31][32]
Happy to leave the informative detail about investment exits in 2018-19, and willing to add detail about more recent exits if appropriate.
- Why it should be changed:
The Pacific Equity Partners Wikipedia page hasn't been updated in some years. Some figures and information about deal activity has fallen out of relevance. I hope these changes will appropriately update the article and reflect the firm's recent investment activities.
- References supporting the possible change (format using the "cite" button):
(Below)
Lizzie PEP (talk) 05:57, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
- In selecting which investment acquisitions and divestures to show, I can see two logical bases: include those firms that have Wikipedia articles of their own, or those where the largest investments are involved, while in either case, focussing on those involving a change of control of the company/. I normally do not like using tables instead of text, but this might be a god place to use tables. Rember that if someone is looking for the most current or complete information, your company's web page is the obvious place to go.
- I don't seethe point of "wards and accolades from industry body Australian Investment Council." if you include this you need an exact specification and a reference for each, but I think you'd need to show it significant for the general reader. In the section "The firm realised a strong return from the sale of ... which it exited in 2018 for $NZ300 million. PEP first purchased Manuka in 2015 and made key changes including ..., allowing better transparency on quality and reducing counterfeiting. This work gained industry recognition in 2018 for quality management and responsible investing"
- You cannot use vague adjective instead of numbers and you need to put numbers in contest -- % share, controlling interest etc.
- " which at the time was led by Mitt Romney, US politician and Republican Party's nominee for president of the United States in the 2012 election." is name dropping--remove it. If the company founder received an OA as a philanthropist we need an article on him, but should not mention it here.
- "awards and accolades" is jargon. largest" always needs a good third party source. Ref `14 is not 3rd party. Never refer to anyone except a performer by their first name alone. Try for conciseness "that manages multiple alternative asset classes, including private equity, infrastructure, credit, and other alternative investment strategies." should be "that manages g private equity, infrastructure, credit, and other alternative investment strategies."
- I think the way to go from here is a complete revision . Please do it in your user space and let me know when ready. It's much more effective than listing many minor changes. DGG ( talk ) 07:06, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @DGG, thank you very much for taking the time to look over and review this. Incorporating your feedback, I have put a complete revision of the article in my user space here: User:Lizzie PEP/sandbox
- I would be open also to formatting the investments into tables, but have left as text for now. The section regarding Manuka precedes this edit request by some years… might be another question as to whether or not to change it.
- Thanks again for your initial review, please let me know what you think of the full revision Lizzie PEP (talk) 05:28, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

- @Lizzie PEP Hi, I am working to clean up the "request edit" backlog. I have read this request, reviewed all the comments, and the next section with a further request (not properly formatted). I also see you have made two recent edits directly to the to the article, even though you have been warned not to do so. I know it can be frustrating waiting for unpaid editors to deal with your request, but here we are. I will not revert your edits, but please make no more direct edits. I will try and clean up the article with the outstanding items and close these requests. Please submit new requests here for additional changes. Cheers. Duke Gilmore (talk) 20:14, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
- Dear @Duke Gilmore, thank you for your comment and for your work in clearing the edit backlog. You're right - significant delays were becoming frustrating, but I'll exercise more patience in future. I note that this page has not been updated with content from the last 2-3 years, and as such I have suggested page amendments (factual and cited) which perhaps yourself or another editor could implement. Please see below, and do let me know what you think.
- Since 2020, PEP has expanded its investment categories, moving into core-plus infrastructure, private credit investments, and global multi-manager funds (fund of funds).[1][2] Individual investments include retirement funding provider Household Capital,[3] traffic management business Altus Group,[4] retirement village provider Serenitas,[5] LMS Energy,[6] and allied health company Healthia.[7] In 2023, PEP completed fundraising for a second secure assets fund, raising $1.4 billion with the assistance of the Clean Energy Finance Corporation.[8] The firm also established a PEP Gateway product, a consolidation of other global private equity managers with a lower price of entry than typical private equity offerings. July 2023 saw the firm exit the last of its investments in Fund V, an A$2.1 billion fund created in 2015. Top-performing investments in this fund were hospitals business Evolution Healthcare and medical device distributor LifeHealthcare, both of which made investors four times their initial investment.[9] Lizzie PEP (talk) 23:48, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
- Dear @Duke Gilmore, I'd also like to propose a small change to the introductory paragraph. Please see below, do let me know what you think. Thanks, Lizzie PEP (talk) 06:22, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- Pacific Equity Partners (PEP) is a private equity firm focusing on transactions in Australia and New Zealand.

- I've done some edits to the page. I'll take a look at the above and see if there are notable items to include. MatthewDalhousie (talk) 00:49, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
- Incidentally, while Australian Financial Review is considered a reliable source, it would be better form if source material came from a variety of mastheads. Just a thought. MatthewDalhousie (talk) 00:52, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
- Dear @MatthewDalhousie, thank you for your feedback and edits, both very much appreciated. From looking at your notes, it seems a restructuring of the way historical and present investments are listed is necessary. I am fairly inexperienced with Wikipedia, but I can draft up in my sandbox a version that you might consider adding to the live article. I acknowledge your point about the Australian Financial Review… unfortunately it is the major point of news coverage in Australian finance, with the Australian Business Review (a section of a newspaper) a more distant second. I appreciate your help, and will aim to submit a draft investment schedule and text of history and culture section for your feedback soon. Thanks Lizzie PEP (talk) 06:17, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Honestly, I would do it bit by bit.
- I can see there are good articles from reliable sources around, including Bloomberg, Forbes and The Australian. MatthewDalhousie (talk) 06:45, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Dear @MatthewDalhousie, good point on the other outlets. I believe some of those sources have been used elsewhere in the article. I've drafted up some additions to the article based on your feedback. It would be great to hear what you think. Feel free to take a look in my Sandbox, and by all means implement what you see fit.
