Asset Management

Asset Management

We have managed funds across a range of strategies, including private equity, private credit, listed equities, and venture capital, delivering outperformance on all thus far.

When we started, we had a select range of partners that were family offices and sophisticated institutions primarily out of Switzerland, Asia, and to a lesser extent, Australia. We did take on retail investor money in Australia for several years but are now returning to focus on family offices and preferred institutions who share the same values and investment horizon as we do.

Our asset management business operates with an unorthodox ethos—our mission at Arowana Management isn’t solely to raise more capital and increase funds under management, nor is it to stick to one particular investment strategy. Rather, we are increasingly dedicated to investment outperformance, especially as the largest investor cohort in any fund vehicle we launch will typically be our principals and team. Our strategy is to have the same investment agility of first-generation family offices. We will typically only establish funds in sectors where the demand for capital exceeds the supply, meaning a greater probability of investment outperformance. We will not hesitate to close a fund or strategy if this fundamental demand-and-supply dynamic changes.

  • Long-Term Partnerships

Arowana Management pursues trusted and enduring partnerships with VC managers. We believe this process forms the foundation for investment success and see it as our responsibility to add value in addition to the capital we provide.

  • Alignment of Interest

Successful businesses are built on aligned interests. Arowana Management regards the alignment of long-term incentives and common values as the cornerstone of the LP-GP relationship as a means to safeguard our common interest.

  • Risk-Return Optimization

Diligent investing requires an understanding of returns relative to the risks undertaken to generate them. We select fund managers who have robust risk management practices and take the necessary risks to generate outsized returns.

  • ESG beyond boilerplates

As responsible investors, we strive to apply the potential of technology to build a more sustainable world for future generations. We look for clearly defined ESG principles to make a positive impact while generating returns.
