With a broad investment mandate, we support the development of Montfort’s oil trading activity by providing access to the market and control of strategic supply chain infrastructure.

We adopt a flexible owner/operator model: we are frequently a majority owner and operator of the companies we invest in, but not exclusively so.

Our focus is Africa, the Middle East, South and Southeast Asia.
