    Investment Philosophy

    Targeted Support for Superior Growth

    The investment philosophy of Global Finance in relation to Private Equity investments is aimed towards management buy-outs or companies seeking financial and management support to implement ambitious plans for growth whereas Real Estate investment are focused on developing high quality properties with superior potential.

    Aligned Interest in Capital Appreciation

    In every investment, the main emphasis is placed on value creation and capital appreciation. To that effect, priority is usually given to the re-investment of earnings, as opposed to dividend payout, stressing long-term equity appreciation over short-term value.  All sides (owners, management, investors and employees) stand to gain from capital appreciation. 

    Flexibility in Type, Size and Location of Transactions

    Global Finance aims to invest in companies with an excellent potential for equity appreciation, regardless of the industry they compete in. Countries - other than Greece and other European Union members - that are of particular interest are Bulgaria, Romania and Russia. Global Finance is flexible to accommodate any size of investment, especially when taking into account the possibility of investments in partnership with like-minded investors. For most acquisitions, whether strategic minority interests or controlling majority stakes, Global Finance calls for board representation. Global Finance’s investments are negotiated transactions sourced through a proprietary network of corporate, institutional and individual relationships.

    Analysis and Fine Tuning

    Global Finance minimises risk and optimises return through a careful analysis of a company’s business plan and an expert fine-tuning of the capital structure to meet the operating needs and growth strategy of the acquired business. As a result, Global Finance may end up taking minority participation or majority stakes, but in all cases supporting the management to run the business in independence.
