American Industrial Partners was founded in 1988; according to Indianapolis News, the partnership primary consisted of CEOs who resigned following the takeovers of their companies. The partnership focused on investing in manufacturing companies. Unlike some contemporary investment firms, rather than perform leveraged buyouts, AIP claims to focus on improving the profitability of acquired companies. After acquiring companies, it would focus on "cutting debt and improving operations" while adopting a "hands-off management style" that typically retained previous leadership.
