Values

Our market mapping and analysis of sectors and trends provides the foundations for us to make rational investments and develop successful strategies.

When we invest, we bring capital with expertise. We work in partnership with management teams, helping companies improve and deliver accelerated growth.

Integrity and trust is essential — we listen carefully to founders, owners and managers and establish long-term partnerships.

We have a small number of partners and make investment decisions collaboratively and quickly.

All investments benefit from two Lyceum partners on the board as well as support from our hugely experienced in-house Operations and Development Teams.

We focus on long-term strategy and business improvement. We do not strip assets and have a good record in preserving and creating jobs through growth.

Our market knowledge informs our strategic thinking and we use our in-house market mapping data and analysis to find the right businesses to acquire.

We measure performance and progress in relation to a company’s sector, size, growth and aims and use this to refine and optimise its strategy.

Lyceum is a responsible investor which recognises, as business and individuals, that we have responsibilities to the wider community and we articulate this through our ESG policy.
