Soon after its founding in 1989, The Bancroft Group, LP’s early business was providing mergers and acquisition advice to US companies seeking to buy assets or establish operations in Central and Eastern Europe.

In November, 2002, their second fund, Bancroft 2 was launched. Its geographical coverage was extended to include Turkey. In June 2008, Bancroft 3, L.P. was launched, a fund targeting the same region as Bancroft 2.
