Our Business

Our Philosophy

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.  Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking.  Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.  And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition."  Steve Jobs  

 



 

Relationships

Building lasting relationships and trust with each of our partners is the heart of our philosophy.

Integrity

We believe that open communication is a key factor in successful deal negotiation.

Sectors

Cores depth of knowledge and rigorous research brings a whole new perspective.

Responsiveness

We aim to make the process from deal identification to acceptance or decline as rapid as possible.

CORE BUSINESS


Core is an independent and privately held firm. We are the investments arm of the Patel Family and don’t directly borrow or invest on behalf of the public. However, we believe our long term success is determined by our partnerships.

Our Partnerships and Relationships

Core’s fundamental philosophy is that businesses are about people and that successful private investments starts and ends with successfully partnering the very best people.

Our Business

At Core Investments, we categorise our business into three high level areas – Private Equity, Financial Markets, and Mezzanine Finance.

The objectives of all our business is simple – Identify, invest, and operate long term cash generative businesses which generate consistent cash flows to help meet our Social Responsibility obligations.

Our core belief is that there are a number of asset classes with attractive return prospects but different return drivers. We believe that combining these asset classes in a diversified portfolio results in the attractive returns coming through in a much more consistent fashion than any one asset class in isolation. This approach is very transparent, makes it easy to understand, and robust to differing market conditions.

A key aspect of delivering on this core philosophy is our ability to identify and access a broad range of asset classes. This is driven by the breadth and depth of resources we have across a range of investment specialisms. There are also many more asset classes available today - providing more opportunities to generate returns, reducing reliance on any one investment and benefiting from a lower expected volatility that can better navigate market turbulence.
