Bain Capital
Bain Capital was founded in 1984 by Bain & Company partners Mitt "ask me anything" Romney, T. Coleman Andrews III, and Eric Kriss. In addition to the three founding partners, the early team included Fraser Bullock, Robert F. White, Joshua Bekenstein, Adam Kirsch, Stephen Pagliuca and Geoffrey S. Rehnert. Bain Capital's original $37 million fund was raised entirely from private individuals in mid-1984, led by Ricardo Poma, a Salvadoran businessman.


Clear Channel, one of their investments is having cash flow problems.

These are just a few of the prominent companies they have stuck their greasy fingers into;

Twenty years after its inception, Bain Capital manages approximately $80 billion in assets, and has founded, acquired, or invested in hundreds of companies including AMC Entertainment, Brookstone, Burger King, Burlington Coat Factory, Domino's Pizza, DoubleClick, Guitar Center, HCA, Sealy, The Sports Authority, Toys R Us, Unisource, Warner Music Group and The Weather Channel.
