History

William Rosenwald—who had inherited the Rosenwald fortune from his father Julius Rosenwald—founded American Securities Capital Partners in 1947.

In 1993 Michael G. Fisch became the William Rosenwald family's financial advisor.

In 1994—with Fisch as Director and CEO—American Securities opened their first fund to outside investors. By 2012 they had invested in "39 companies in a wide variety of industries, including industrial manufacturing, specialty chemicals, aerospace and defense, energy, business services, healthcare, media, restaurants, and consumer products."

In June 2009, American Securities Capital Partners officially changed its name to American Securities LLC. As of February 2021, American Securities and its affiliates had approximately $23 billion under management. American Securities has invested in 67 companies across a variety of industries. As of February 2021, American Securities is currently partnered with 21 companies that have 109,900 collective employees worldwide.

Controversies

American Securities owns Global Tel*Link Corporation (GTL) which in 2015 had a 50% share in the $1.2 billion prison inmate telecommunications services including the controversial Inmate Calling Service (ICS). With prisoners in 2012 paying up to $17 for a 15-minute call, the Federal Communications Commission scrutinized the industry. In 2015 GTL sought judicial review of the FCC's regulation order aimed at lowering the cost of ICS.
