Financial Services / The dynamic pace of change in the Financial Services sector makes it a highly attractive market for Duke Street investments. The increasing complexity of financial products, the way regulation is forcing changes in ownership, lack of liquidity in some segments of the market, even the recent volatility of financial markets, all mean this is an area where we see a growing number of opportunities.
We have a strong interest in investing in lending businesses as well as service providers to the financial community. We back management teams that have a clear growth agenda and have the vision to make interesting operational changes that will speed that growth.
Our investments in this area include the insurance group Equity and the specialist pensions group Xafinity, as well as debt purchasing business, Marlin Financial and wealth manager, UKWM.
