Most M&A databases only list a PE firm's headquarters. Mergr captures every office a firm operates from — and every one is searchable.
That means you can find investors with local presence in a specific city or country, even when that location isn't their primary HQ. Useful for cross-border deals, identifying regional partners, or building a buyer list where boots-on-the-ground matters.
Example: Washington DC-based The Carlyle Group operates from 20+ offices worldwide. A standard HQ-only search for India-based investors would miss Carlyle entirely — even though they have a substantial Mumbai team.
Search Example
Investors with a Secondary Office in India
Step 1
Navigate to the Private Equity Search page.
Step 2
In the Investor Criteria section, open the Country dropdown and choose India.
Step 3
By default, location filters look at the investor's Main / HQ Office only. You can change this to widen or narrow the search:
Main Office only (default) — investors headquartered in India
All Offices — any investor with at least one office in India, HQ or otherwise
Secondary Offices — excludes HQ matches; returns investors based elsewhere but with an India office
In this case, select Secondary Offices (exclude Main Office).
Step 4
Select Search.
Results
Your result set will list all Investors that have a secondary office located in India.
When to use this
Cross-border deals — find PE firms with local execution capacity in a target country
Regional sourcing — identify investors active in a market beyond their HQ city
Co-investor mapping — surface firms with presence in a region that aren't obviously based there
BD targeting — prospect investors whose nearest office is one you can actually visit
