Building passionately with entrepreneurs 

We are active participants in our partnerships. With our industry knowledge, strategic insights, resources and on the ground access in Asia, we are enthusiastic about growing businesses with passionate entrepreneurs across sectors and geographies.  We have a presence and quality network in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand. 
​

Karrin I

Our Karrin I fund is a growth oriented fund focused on riding the ASEAN consumer growth. We believe stronger GDP growth will drive higher population income levels, leading to consumer sophistication and awareness particularly given increased technological and market penetration. This will severely alter spending behaviour in decades to come. 

The fund focuses on late stage lower-middle market companies which are Ebitda positive or with a clear path to profitability.
 We take  significant minority or control positions and are focused on Consumer Retail, Food Manufacturing, Education and Healthcare.

​We typically co-invest in these companies with investors who possess the necessary operational knowhow while we provide the strategic, financial and partnership roadmaps. The bite sizes we consider in this area range from US$5 - 20 million.

Special Situations

Ever so often, we do see special situation opportunities with the potential to alter the future course of a business. Selectively, we do consider and participate alongside proven industry leaders in unlocking upside potential from under-appreciated, distressed companies, or companies with good cashflows leading to buyout opportunities. The bite sizes we consider in this area range from US$10 - 30 million.
