Investment Strategy - Adding Value

Our Philosophy


We seek to bring capital, expertise, local knowledge and contacts to our focus markets and to combine these with strong experience and an extensive network of relationships to create and grow leading companies and projects in their respective sectors.

Tuareg Capital's philosophy is to bring:

International Capital, + Expertise and Discipline + Local Knowledge and Contacts

to its focus markets and to combine it with:

Strong Regional and International Experience + an Extensive Network of Strong Relationships

to create and grow leading companies and projects in their respective sectors.

We view the following characteristics as critical in our investment analysis:

  • Strong, experienced management
  • A robust cash flow profile
  • Strong, defendable competitive positions
  • Well-defined industry focus
  • Significant / growing market share
  • Potential growth through strategic positioning or funding

Our investment strategy is perhaps more long term than traditional private equity investing, given the nature of our markets and the nascent investment frameworks. A strong degree of patience and commitment to investments is therefore required. We recognise that many management teams have never operated under rigorous reporting requirements and therefore this cultural shift needs to be astutely managed, with mutual co-operation and shared visions.

We employ disciplined, rigorous investment procedures to source, analyse, execute, create value and exit our investments. From the deal sourcing stage through to preliminary due diligence, and final execution of an investment, we maintain a strict focus on creating value for our investors and shareholders.

Such focus continues through the life of our investments, through adding value by leveraging the Tuareg Capital network, until realization.
