Delete Looks like a WP:PROMO. A lot of the sources are its own website. Fails WP:CORP. LibStar (talk) 10:59, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Generic PE PROMO. Nate • (chatter) 21:07, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comments: There are also:
- Sovereign's Capital - Christian investment fund
- A Singaporean investment fund also named Sovereign Capital
- "sovereign capital" as a generic term

These appear in Google News searches and muddy the waters a bit

This is a lengthy article on the UK company.[1]

If this article was to survive, it should be renamed to Sovereign Capital Partners, as per the article text and their logo, which would also help distinguish from other usages. AllyD (talk) 12:00, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: An article about a finance firm, setting out various of its transactions. The article was better before this IP edit, which also removed the longstanding Advert tag, and at one time listed various industry awards, but these do not appear notable. Searches find announcements of transactions, other firms' press releases about advising this firm on a transaction, appointments, etc., all of which fall under trivial coverage at WP:CORPDEPTH. I am seeing insufficient evidence of attained notability. AllyD (talk) 11:48, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am the author of the changes. They were made because the previous article was very out of date and therefore inaccurate. I would also point out there are a number of other private equity firms of a similar size and profile which have a Wikipedia entry Tom2001UK (talk) 11:31, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is a company therefore we apply GNG/WP:NCORP guidelines. I am unable to locate any source that meet the criteria for establishing notability. HighKing⁺⁺ 13:36, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
