The focus on long-term capital appreciation requires a focus on growth and efficient use of capital.

Alignment

Great businesses and great investments come from building true partnerships with our investors and the leaders and companies in which we’re invested.

Investors can rely on being aligned with the investment team for the medium to long-term.
The investment team ensures that the management of underlying investment businesses are incentivised to create medium to long-term alignment with investors.
