Investment Philosophy
Our investment horizon captures the long-term prospects for our partner companies, moving beyond the short and medium term economic cycles, ensuring sustainable positive returns in the sectors we target. Our portfolio is structured into four key areas namely Strategic Investments, Global Asset Management, Local Investments, and Government Holdings.
-
Collaborative Management
A key element of our approach is the collaborative liaison we generate between ourselves and the senior management teams and other stakeholders in our portfolio companies. Mutual exchange of imaginative ideas adds value to these partnerships while active management of national strategic assets produces a balanced portfolio of sector- agnostic participants.

Financial Prerogatives
Our mandate focuses on absolute financial return targets. We seek to achieve sustainable growth, employing clear hurdle rates for our investments.
