Our approach helps our portfolio companies grow core businesses, launch new initiatives, make transformative acquisitions and upgrade technologies and systems to support their long-term strategy.

Our Investors by Geography

Advising the CFI funds to which our investors have committed, understanding what investors are looking for from their investment and working with them to provide enhanced returns drives the CFI’s strategy and that of the Investor Relations team.

The Investor Relations (IR) team places significant emphasis on two key areas: relationship development and investor communication. The primary principle applied across both areas is to be transparent, by providing detailed and frequent information through formal and informal communication channels strictly to our investors.

Relationship Development

The IR team manages a thorough relationship development programme ensuring our investors receive relevant updates and information on opportunities to invest in CFI’s fund, as well as providing access to senior investment professionals across the firm.
