We work across an array of industries stretching from disruptive technologies to natural resources, with a broad geographical reach. CSS Partners has exclusive access to a pool of companies with high growth potential.
Working Together
CSS Partners holds an equity stake in each investee company. This way our motivation to help drive the companies to a trade sale or a stock market listing is aligned with investors.
Your Alternative Investment Capital Options
At CSS Partners, we have been raising alternative investment capital for private companies for 20 years and continue to deliver an unrivalled service to private investors. Our team work to enable private alternative investors to invest with confidence. We will never push you towards a decision or be biased; we simply present the material, so you can make an educated choice. A high level of research is detailed in a placing document, which will include what the company is looking to achieve, all the risks involved with investing and the potential benefits, so you can make your investment knowing all the information. You will also know the full potential upside from the investment as the placing document will include a full explanation about the company, product, market, management expectations and how it’s different.
We will provide you with the options for alternative investment capital, which is a financial asset that doesn’t fall into a conventional investment category and is typically held by high net worth investors. Alternative investments include venture capital, managed futures, private equity and commodities. There tend to be higher fee structures and higher minimum investments associated with alternative investments partners, especially compared to exchange-traded funds, but alternative investment capital comes with a number of benefits, such as capitalising on opportunities that are not offered in the public markets and having an absolute return mandate.
Make Informed Decisions on Your Investment
In addition to raising alternative investment capital, we also provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision regarding convertible loan notes, EIS shares and venture capital investment. We specialise in informing investment decisions due to our expertise and experience in the industry, and our team can provide you with all you need to know about different capital investment opportunities, as some are not suitable for all investors.
