While artificial intelligence is playing a transformative role for many industries, it has also started to be used in private equity investments where big data analysis is vital.

Private equity funds, which aim for profitability by making strategic investments in companies with growth potential, showed a remarkable performance in the first three quarters of 2022. According to Private Equity International’s data, private equity funds, which raised $516.9 billion through strategic sales and public offerings in the first 9 months of the year, also play a pioneering role in technology development. Independent private equity fund SOS Investment, with the support of the US-based technology company Sir Unique, will start to incorporate artificial intelligence technology into the business processes of the companies it invests in. The first example in the world where artificial intelligence will be used in stages such as big data analysis, marketing, branding, reporting, portfolio management and due diligence in companies to be invested was established in Turkey with the support of international investors. Supported by Eurasia Capital Partners, including ECP, Vita Nova Capital, Hong Kong China Turkey Investment and Axxess Capital, SOS Investment will manage millions of euros with the support of artificial intelligence.

Sharing his evaluations on the subject, SOS Investment Founder and Turkey Representative Oktay Kemal Özdemir said, “The global economy is going through a period of great uncertainty. In such a period, we launched the independent private equity fund SOS Investment with the support of world-renowned investors. In this period of uncertainty, we will stand by the companies with growth potential in Turkey and make strategic investments with the power of artificial intelligence.”

By including Turkish companies that we can grow together with in our portfolio, we aim to play a facilitating role in announcing this potential of our country to the world. While doing this, we foresee to become one of the world’s leading and innovative private equity companies in the next five years by positioning the new generation artificial intelligence as a manager in our organizational structure and to increase our competitiveness in international markets, especially in Europe and America.

We will diversify our investments in Europe and America with proven models.”
