Our investment philosophy

Our investment philosophy is simple: we find best-in-class companies in high-growth, high-ROCE sectors that are open to working with investors as agents of change. We combine this investment philosophy with deep expertise in our focus sectors to drive consistent performance across economic and political cycles.

sector

Sector knowledge

ChrysCapital has invested in core sectors – Enterprise Technology, Financial Services, Healthcare, Consumer, New Economy, and Manufacturing for 20+ years. The sector-wise organisation of the investment team helps focus on strong fundamentals. It helps us differentiate megatrends from temporary displacements, identify companies that can benefit from those megatrends, and bring our experience to add value for these companies.

Icon_Disciplined Investing

Disciplined investing

ChrysCapital prides itself on its highly disciplined and institutionalized approach to investing. We focus on high-ROCE sectors and meticulously evaluate risk versus reward in both growth and control investments, comparing performance against benchmarks and valuation against 10-year averages. We take pride in being valued investors but also understand that, sometimes, one needs to pay up for quality.

Icon_Long-Term Perspective

Long-term perspective

We operate with a long-term mindset. With a 5–7-year horizon, our strategy emphasises looking beyond the froth or pessimism of prevailing sentiment and focusing on a business’s true, long-term value. This approach seeks to drive sustained value creation and growth, prioritising overlooked opportunities and long-term potential over short-term gains.

Icon_Focus on Exits

Sharp focus on exits

We live by the simple advice from one of our earliest institutional investors—“No LP will ever be unhappy when you return capital.” To that end, we operate with a sharp focus on exits, closing funds out on time, and returning capital to investors. We have a clearly defined exit strategy at the time of investment. We protect the portfolio by taking chips off the table regularly to drive cash-on-cash returns.
