Capital Partnerships

Fund Investments

A private investment office allocating long-horizon capital to high-conviction managers, selected on team quality, alignment and governance, with a weighting toward real assets and private credit.

How We Partner with Managers

We deploy capital alongside leading fund managers and institutional partners, seeking long-term, risk-adjusted returns, led by Ivan Ivanov and our investment team.

For managers: we are patient, unlevered capital with a real-asset heritage, able to move quickly on funds, co-investments and secondaries. For capital partners: a disciplined manager-research process, concentrated positions and full transparency on how and why capital is committed.

What we do

Long-Horizon Capital, Selected Manager by Manager

We commit our own capital to a concentrated set of managers across private equity, private credit, real assets and public markets, through primary commitments, co-investments and secondaries, chosen on team quality, alignment and governance rather than league tables.

Who this is for: Fund managers raising aligned capital, and capital partners looking for disciplined, transparent allocation.

01

Patient, unlevered capital

No redemption pressure and no fund life to manage against, so we can commit through cycles and support managers between raises.

02

Decision makers at the table

You speak to the investment team from first meeting to commitment, in a short, direct process with no committee theatre.

03

Real-asset heritage

Two decades of owning, lending against and operating real assets and services businesses informs how we underwrite managers.

04

More than an LP cheque

Access to our operating bench, portfolio companies and networks across the UK, GCC, US and Asia where it helps a manager's strategy.

Private Markets

Selective commitments to private equity, venture, and credit managers with proven track records.

Public Markets

Targeted allocations to active managers across global listed equity and fixed income.

Co-Investment

Direct participation alongside trusted partners in high-conviction opportunities.

Our Investment Focus

Capital Allocation
01

Private Funds

We invest across private equity fund strategies with a focus on long-term value creation, disciplined capital allocation, and active ownership, spanning established and growth-oriented businesses through funds, co-investments, and secondaries.

We partner with experienced managers applying a bottom-up approach, combining deep due diligence, strong governance, and hands-on operational engagement across Europe and Asia.

02

Private Debt

We provide flexible, bespoke debt capital to established and growth-oriented businesses, particularly in middle-market and private-equity-backed environments: senior secured, unitranche, and structured credit.

Working alongside specialist credit managers, our private debt strategy prioritises consistent income, capital preservation, and downside protection across economic cycles.

03

Emerging Markets

We invest in markets undergoing structural growth and economic transformation, where long-term value is driven by strong local execution and regional insight across MENA and key Asian economies.

Within Asia, priority markets include China, Singapore, and India, allocating across private equity and growth strategies that combine local presence, governance, and operational support.

04

Public Markets

We allocate across public market strategies designed to deliver long-term income and capital growth, spanning global equities, fixed income, listed real assets, and multi-asset solutions.

Public market allocations complement private assets by providing liquidity, diversification, and resilience across market cycles.

05

Real Estate Assets

We invest across real asset strategies giving exposure to tangible, income-generating assets: private real estate, infrastructure, and select real asset credit across key global markets.

We partner with experienced operators applying disciplined underwriting and locally informed asset management, supporting inflation protection and portfolio resilience.

Next Horizon

Planned Expansion for 2026/2027

China01
India02
Singapore03

Our expansion strategy is underpinned by a deliberately diversified approach spanning geography, asset class, and currency exposure.

Establishing a presence across key Asian markets lets us access high-growth opportunities, diversify risk, and align the portfolio with global shifts in capital, innovation, and economic influence.
