About Maven Investor Partners

Maven Investor Partners is an established investor network for professional client investors who can access a range of carefully researched private equity and property transactions, that are typically only available to institutional capital.

Alternative asset investments

Alternative assets have long been the mainstay of many institutional and family office portfolios, but are often out of reach to individual professional investors. Maven Investor Partners offers experienced investors a way to create a more balanced portfolio with exposure to alternative investments that are uncorrelated to the public markets and usually only available to institutional capital.

Maven Investor Partners is free to join and you can register your interest today.

We do the heavy lifting

After we invest we look to forge a strong working relationship with each investee company in order to support its growth plan, drive business improvements and realise healthy investor profits at time of sale.

The Process

Prior to sending any proposal to Investor Partners, a prospective new transaction is subject to rigorous analysis within Maven, including a detailed review by members of our partner group and senior investment executive. That process is intended to challenge and prove the investment thesis, and to help structure the transaction to protect investor capital and deliver the best possible returns.

Step one

Sourcing of investment opportunities

Each locally sponsored transaction is carefully assessed through a three-stage internal review and approval process, with the ultimate decision whether to proceed resting with Maven’s national Investment Committee which is made up of members of our partner group and other senior executives.

Step two

Due diligence & evaluation

If the decision is taken to conditionally proceed, the target business is subject to extensive third-party due diligence, covering all key aspects of the investment, including financial, legal and management referencing, as well as full market and commercial analysis. At this time Maven also seeks to identify prospective acquirers for the business or asset, based on comparable M&A activity in the sector.

Step three

Client selection & deal execution

A detailed investment proposal is issued to Investor Partners only when the initial review process is complete, including an estimate of the likely projected returns. There is then a defined period to consider each proposal before deciding whether or not to participate. Maven investment executives are on hand to provide further information and discuss the merits of the investment case on a one to one basis if required.

Step four

Value creation & monitoring

Following completion of the transaction, Maven manages all aspects of the investment through to ultimate exit, as well as providing investors with cash distributions on the Loan Stock element on a six monthly basis. Performance update reports on their portfolio holdings are also provided to Investor Partners at that time.

Investment opportunities beyond the public markets


Private Equity

Private equity is now widely recognised as an established asset class with a long history of generating positive returns and is attracting increasing interest from experienced investors who seek diversification beyond the traditional asset classes and the potential for higher risk-adjusted returns. 

 

Property

Although it has cyclical characteristic, UK property remains an attractive asset class for investors, offering relatively predictable returns and yield-generating assets. Often there is very controlled and measurable downside risk, given the underlying asset backing associated with property.

A team dedicated to you

We take the time to build long-term relationships with our investors with a view to understanding your investment goals. Our client facing executives and dedicated team of property professionals are on hand to assist you along the way.

Risk warning

An investment directly into an unquoted or private company or into property carries a higher degree of risk than many other forms of investment and may be difficult to realise, as shares in private companies are not publicly traded. The value of shares in a private company, and the level of income derived from them, may fall as well as rise and investors may not get back the money originally invested. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. 

Maven investments are intended for Professional Clients and institutional investors only. Such investments are only suitable for investors who are able to evaluate and understand the risks and merits of such investment and have the resources to bear any loss that may result from such investments.
