Talk:CVC Capital Partners

Short request
In accordance with Wikipedia’s guidelines I declare that I am working on behalf of Róbert Wessman. The 'Controversies' section on this page is currently in need of two changes. The current text states that "In March 2021, their representatives on Alvogen's board led an internal investigation into allegations of abuse and bullying behavior [etc]". The attached source, https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-03-29/drugmaker-ceo-cleared-after-former-executive-alleged-bullying, does not mention CVC Capital Partners at all, and states that the board cleared Wessman of the alleged behaviour. The following sentence, "The investigation highlights rising attention to conduct by corporate leaders in their dealings with colleagues and employees" is not an objective statement and should also be removed.

As this material is tangential to CVC Capital Partners itself the whole paragraph should be removed, or the fact that Wessman was cleared (as stated in the existing citation) should be stated as this is not evident from the current wording. Thanks in advance for taking time to help! Fabfare (talk) 11:26, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

Request for changes
Hi I have a conflict of interest and would like to request the following changes on behalf of CVC. I hope the below all make sense and please send me a message if there is anything you would like to discuss:

1. Certain statistics are out of date and should be replaced. This would affect the Total assets parameter of the Infobox and the first paragraph of the Introduction as per the below:

Reason: statistics are out of date. ✅ In the future, please also provide updated proposed text for the infobox, and any other text that might need to change if named references are replaced in one section but are still present in others. STEM info (talk) 21:21, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

2. Add the following sentence to the end of the Introduction:

Reason: Addition is newsworthy due to record size and is covered by reliable sources.
 * ✅ Seems to be there already.

Changed from dollars to Euros. STEM info (talk) 01:30, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

3.	Certain key personnel are either not listed in their correct role or no longer with the company. Can this be updated in the Key people parameter of the Infobox and at appropriate points in the text.

}}

Reason: Information is out of date.

4. The Products and Services parameters of the Infobox do not accurately represent the scope of CVC's work. Could we please combine everything under Products (as a Service can be defined as such according to the article defining Product) so a more accurate understanding is possible:

Reason: Better summary of services than the current, vaguer summary

5. Can the content of the Controversies section be redistributed chronologically throughout the History section as per WP:CSECTION. The first paragraph could be moved after the sentence "From November 2005 to March 2006, CVC gradually purchased 63.4% of the shares of the Formula One Group, owner of the Formula One auto racing championship." in the 2000s section and the second paragraph could be moved after the sentence "In January 2013, Smith retired from the role of chairman and Koltes, Mackenzie and Van Rappard were appointed co-chairmen of the group." in the 2010s section.

Reason: WP:CSECTION indicates that such sections encourage departure from NPOV.

6. Can the following paragraph be added in the 2020s section before the December 2023 update, or wherever appropriate:

Reason: Update on notable recent developments covered by reliable sources.

7. In the 2020s section at the end, could the most recent news coverage please be added:

Reason: Update on notable recent developments covered by reliable sources.

Many thanks for considering this request. Selixomen (talk) 17:17, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

 * @STEMinfo thanks so much for starting this off!
 * @Encoded you are a hero, thank you so much for your efforts on the remainder! It means a lot after the wait.
 * The IPO has gone ahead now, would you mind terribly having a look at the following update wording? The timing is ironic, I know - if you think it looks alright I'd be happy to add it myself, I feel like the request queue is big enough without submitting a new one and I don't want to put you off!
 * On 26 2024, CVC listed its shares on the Euronext Amsterdam stock exchange, opening at €17.34. The total offering size was €2.3 billion.
 * These sources should confirm this:
