THE ESSENSE OF LAKELAND EQUITY GROUP

OUR VALUES

We use our values as a guide for all interactions and opportunities. These principles ground our day-to-day decisions, keeping us focused and aligned with our mission.

INTEGRITY

Our strength lies in our commitment to honesty and accountability. We strive to uphold and protect the trust placed in us.

REPUTATION

Reputation is the foundation of success—99% of opportunities arise from it. Guard it relentlessly.

AUDACITY

The courage to take action while others hesitate defines the line between leaders and followers.

DISCIPLINE

Discipline ensures our decisions are grounded in thorough analysis and deliberate action.

EXECUTION

Turning vision into reality requires excellence in execution. Success lies in getting it done right.

DETERMINATION

The difference between success and failure is persistence. Determination drives us to overcome challenges.

Core Investment Principle

"OPTIONALITY"

Our core investment principle is “optionality.” While it can take many forms, at its essence, it means buying the right asset, at the right price, with the right people. This approach allows us to focus on asymmetrical returns—a philosophy of “small losses, giant gains.”

 

Our strategy is built on managing downside risk through optionality. Every opportunity is assessed through the lens of “What are our options if…?” The worst outcomes occur when flexibility is restricted—not just in challenging times, but in strong markets as well.

 

We prioritize asset-backed opportunities with exceptionally strong structuring, as proper structuring is essential to maintaining flexibility. This ensures that even in times of distress, we have multiple paths forward, whether that means repositioning an asset, restructuring terms, or preserving capital effectively. 

Once the downside is protected, the way is paved for strong, stable, returns.
