Deep roots and

extensive reach

With decades of experience inside the alternative investment industry, we recognised that change was necessary. While we are respectful of relationships and tradition, we offer a targeted and precise alternative to the speculative and resource-hungry practices of yesterday.

Our mission

Our purpose is clear. We are transforming the nature of alternative asset raising and pioneering change for the sector. We are challenging conventional industry thinking and encouraging our clients and the investor community to do the same.

We are leveraging our domain expertise, industry network and technological understanding to achieve four things.

1

To build the most comprehensive, accurate and
granular alternative asset investor intelligence platform.
2

To address the specific requirements of each client
with appropriate and effective bespoke solutions.
3

To help our clients turn clear insight into
focused action.
4

To support our clients through any or all stages of
the asset raising cycle.

Our promise to you

We have articulated the things we truly believe in. We urge you to measure us against these benchmarks, just as we do ourselves.

Clarity

We believe in efficient simplicity – making it easier for our clients to achieve their goals. We do business in an open and transparent manner – while maintaining responsible levels of discretion and confidentiality. We explain ourselves eloquently and strive to deliver useful data and actionable insight in a stylish and compelling manner.

Commitment

We believe that tenacity and persistence pay dividends. The world is changing rapidly and in ways foreseen by few. It is easy to become derailed by events. We possess the dedication and enthusiasm to remain aligned with the long-term interests of our clients. We never stop trying to improve every aspect of what we do. Our resilience is born of pertinent experience and a resolute belief in the capabilities of our team and our technology.

Collaboration

We see ourselves as partners with our clients’ sales, marketing and investor relations teams – working alongside them to support and empower their efforts. Our domain experience and broad industry network, combined with the validated and holistic nature of our investor intelligence, means we can deliver tangible added value through all or part of the asset raising cycle: from research and discovery to introductions and due diligence.
