We take an in-depth look at the existing business model to see where it would benefit from disruption. We spearhead digital transformation across the business and organization to align with industry-leading best practices, and build sustainable competitive advantages and lasting value for businesses.

By strengthening and restructuring balance sheets, we enhance portfolio companies’ financial positions and improve cost of capital. We leverage our corporate finance expertise and networks to optimize debt financing, and execute public and private bond issuances, initial public offerings (“IPO”) or sale of equity stakes through public markets.

We have an entrepreneurial spirit and an eye for opportunities. From developing new products and entering new markets, to executing bolt-on acquisitions, we pioneer strategic partnerships and regional expansions. We share referrals of businesses across our portfolio and leverage our influential networks of blue-chip local and international businesses to generate sales.

Partnering with management, we work to improve key operational processes such as sales-force effectiveness, branding and marketing, research and development (R&D), production efficiency and supply-chain management.

We apply international corporate governance best practices for establishing clear roles across the board and management, including appointing independent directors and setting up board committees as needed. To improve financial planning, designate clear responsibilities and promote accountability, we introduce regular management reports with clear KPIs, formalize annual budgets and streamline decision-making across the business.

We identify gaps in the management team, then pursue and effect management upgrades and enhancements to create professionally managed and cohesive organizations. To encourage a culture of ownership and accountability, we promote co-ownership schemes.

The businesses of tomorrow have ESG considerations at their core. We work to integrate ESG best practices into decision-making, and gain the trust of stakeholders and communities.

We identify key risks within existing business operations, and implement forward-looking risk analysis and, where appropriate, mitigation measures. These include hedging for currency and commodity risks, and identifying alternative supplies for critical components.
