Strategies
Three strategies, one lens.
Growth equity, private credit and, in time, structured mining capital. Each is sized to stay boutique and to be deployed within two years.
Pexcell Growth
Growth equity in essential sectors
Businesses that win on distribution and quality in markets where regional funds are absent: pharmaceutical and medical supply, industrial distribution, agricultural and food inputs, logistics, digital infrastructure. Where a business can lead its sector, we build a platform around it and add companies to it.
| Geographies | East and West Africa; Philippines, Indonesia |
|---|---|
| Instruments | Minority and control growth equity; structured equity with downside protection |
| Cheque size | USD 3 to 15 million per transaction |
| A good partner | A company with a product customers return for, a clean cap table, and an ambition to professionalise |
Pexcell Credit
Trade-linked and asset-backed private credit
Mid-market borrowers that banks under-serve, lent against receivables, inventory, equipment and trade flows our own businesses understand. Shariah-compatible structures for Gulf borrowers and investors.
| Geographies | UAE, Saudi Arabia; corridors into Africa and Southeast Asia tied to our trading book |
|---|---|
| Instruments | Senior secured loans, unitranche, receivables and inventory finance, convertible notes |
| Cheque size | USD 2 to 15 million; 12 to 36 month tenors |
| A good borrower | A profitable company with visible collateral, audited accounts and a financing need its bank cannot move fast enough to meet |
Pexcell Resources
Structured capital for gold and copper
New and expanding gold and copper mines in Africa, where staged capital and technical oversight de-risk the build. We bring mining experience on the continent; we invest at the asset level, through earn-ins and joint ventures with a technical partner, never through listed minorities, and we put our commodity trading experience to work on offtake and logistics.
| Geographies | Two to three core African jurisdictions chosen by our framework; capped opportunistic exposure elsewhere |
|---|---|
| Instruments | Earn-ins, asset-level joint ventures, streams and royalties, construction financing |
| Cheque size | USD 10 to 40 million per project, syndicated |
| Status | Pipeline under review; first partnership targeted once a technical partner is appointed |
