LISTED EQUITY
FOCUS
We manage a portfolio of publicly listed companies in energy efficiency and new energy technology. This helps us improve our information sources and decision-making. We invest our own partners' savings, not money from external investors.
OBJECTIVE
Information from publicly listed equity markets brings us invaluable context and additional color for our VC/ private equity investments.
Public markets offer extraordinary amounts of information, often overlooked by VC investors. Listed companies are required to publish financial and operational data, which goes beyond what private companies provide. Additionally, price movements reflect the combined knowledge of all market participants - far more than any single investor could know.
Examples include:
POTENTIAL EXIT
PRICING

When we invest in a private company, we access the company’s valuation against current pricing of similar companies in the equity markets. This gives us a more realistic perspective about the company’s worth and prospects.

MARKET
DEMAND

Private companies often claim great demand for their product by showing its theoretical uses and theoretical buyers. Public equity markets offer us an insight into real sales numbers because listed companies are required to publish financial accounts.
