Investment thesis
Astor Perkins targets emerging business models in mega global industries that other investors overlook, rather than competing in overvalued sectors. The firm conducts deep forensic diligence to identify governance, ethical, and cultural red flags early, believing this protects LP returns and builds long-term winners. By investing across stages with varying risk-reward profiles, the firm accelerates LP cash conversion while generating strong multiples. Sustainability—particularly climate solutions—is core to the firm's founding principles, and the team actively supports founders through board strengthening, fundraising, and market entry.
