This approach helps portfolio companies grow core businesses, launch new initiatives, make transformative acquisitions and upgrade technologies and systems to support long-term strategies.
Our team is comprised of members who are passionate about businesses and operational excellence. We take ownership of our actions to meet clear articulated expectations.

When considering investments GLouisCapital will look to:
- Acquire controlling interests or minority positions with influence where GLouis Capital’s strategic and capital structuring skills can be best utilised.
- Be a long-term holder of investments (unlike other private equity firms which typically look for short-term exits), with a goal of propelling the business towards maximum growth opportunities and to increase return on equity.
- Develop close working relationships with management and to bring in a large network of business expertise to help businesses reach their full potential.
GLouis Capital does invest its own funds but from time to time also incorporates joint ventures (JV’s) with other likeminded companies, funds, institutions, governments as well as bring onboard high net worth (HNW) individuals and family offices who have experience within a particular sector.
GLouis Capital prides itself on making quick decisions. Once finalised, agreements can be made within days rather than weeks.
