Our approach

Every investment decision we take is based on our belief that backing strong management breeds success. We are proud of our approach - not only is it management-centred, but it works.

We have built a reputation for being focused on delivering what we say we will.  Advisors, vendors and management alike appreciate our honest approach throughout the investment cycle - it breeds trust.

We are selective about the deals we do. Typically we invest in three to four new businesses a year. We devote considerable resources to transactions that we consider attractive to ensure that they can be executed swiftly.

Most of our investments fall into six preferred sectors, although we will consider any promising opportunity up to c£100m enterprise value. Click below to view some of our past and present portfolio companies.
