VP Capital Fund I

VP Capital manages investment funds on behalf of investors, targeting opportunities across the capital spectrum. Our approach is driven by fundamental research, market analysis and an open-mindedness to target superior risk-adjusted returns. ​

VP Capital Fund I does not charge a management fee, so if there is no performance, VP Capital does not generate any fees for itself. This unique approach allows for better alignment between VP Capital and its investors.

We have a broad investment mandate, but our preferred focus is on ASX-listed equities. We construct our portfolio and select investment opportunities based on the following factors:

    • our view on the cyclicality of the economy and the equities market;

    • fundamental in-house research on the opportunities we invest into;

    • industry and sector expertise, especially in the mid-cap and emerging sectors; 

    • access to unique opportunities and ideas through our professional network in the sector

Our current portfolio is diversified and designed to capture growth from well-researched investments, while aiming to preserve capital during market downturns
