Our Purpose and Values

Our values are the heart of what makes us tick ... who we are ... and who you can expect us to be. They guide our decisions. And they're the basis upon which strong, fruitful and trusting relationships can be built.

These Values are the foundation of a different kind of culture. A culture of collaboration which can inspire growth. As individuals. As a collective. And as partners, in the truest sense of the word.

WE CHOOSE RIGHT OVER EASY

A duty to all stakeholders to treat them with respect and to “do the right thing”.

LIVING THE VALUE

Putting investors at the heart of everything we do

Taking long term decisions which may conflict with short-term expediency

Passing on the wrong opportunities – “principles have a price”

Beware of little expenses. A small leak will sink a great ship.

You may delay, but time will not.

WE SUCCEED AS ONE GLOBAL TEAM

Working collaboratively across teams and geographies to achieve optimal results.

LIVING THE VALUE

Sourcing the best investment opportunities, globally

Helping portfolio companies internationalise

Encouraging and expecting people to work across offices, teams and cultures

WE HAVE IMPACT THROUGH INSIGHT AND TENACITY

An entrepreneurial spirit to seek out differentiated opportunities and perspectives.

LIVING THE VALUE

Empowering everyone to be entrepreneurial and creative

A willingness to “buck the trend”

Recruiting driven and motivated people who look beyond the obvious

A penny saved is a penny earned.

The most important quality for an investor is temperament, not intellect
