Certain of the managing principals of PNC Equity Partners announced today the formation of Incline Management Corp., a private equity firm which will be independent of PNC and focused on investments in middle market growth companies. The new firm will be led by Jack Glover, Wali Bacdayan and Justin Bertram.


“We have enjoyed a great partnership with PNC since 1982 and have benefitted from having broad access to the bank’s support services. With Incline Management, we are taking the next step in our evolution as a leading lower middle-market private equity firm,” said Glover, a founding partner of Incline Management.


Glover, Bacdayan, and Bertram (who have been with PNC Equity Partners since 1996, 1997 and 1998 respectively), will also remain responsible for management of PNC Equity Partners I, L.P. and PNC Equity Partners II, L.P., a vehicle which is approximately 75 percent invested.
