ABOUT
Invest directly in the equity of well-established and profitable UK private companies aiming to grow rapidly. The target return for each equity investment is to multiply capital by three times or more over a 5 year period. Some investments may fail reducing the overall return on the your portfolio.
We find businesses that are established and profitable with an opportunity for
transformational investment. We support management to grow the business and make it attractive to a trade buyer or private equity fund. We aim to sell in a competitive process to maximise returns.
"As a new PE investor, I was intrigued by Rockpool's unique investment opportunities and have invested in several companies in the Rockpool portfolio over the past two years. During that time, I have been impressed by the vast knowledge and excellent responsiveness of my Relationship Manager and have introduced him to many friends and colleagues who have also invested."

CASE STUDY
MECSIA GROUP
Mecsia provides compliance-led technical inspection and maintenance services to the commercial property, education and healthcare sectors.
Rockpool invested in Mecsia in December 2020, supporting the incumbent management team with a management buyout from the founder. The company increased revenues from £15m to over £100m under Rockpool’s ownership, driven by rapid organic growth and four strategic acquisitions.
A successful exit was achieved in 2024 when the company was sold to Synova, delivering a blended return of 7.0x (120% IRR) capital invested across four rounds of funding (including acquisitions).

RISK WARNING
Your capital will be at risk and there is no guarantee of any investment return. The value of investments may go down and you could lose all of your investment. Private company investments are not listed on any market and this means that you may not be able to sell them when you want to do so. This sort of investment does not provide a reliable source of income. The tax benefits of private company investing depend on your personal circumstances and on compliance with the relevant rules which may be subject to change. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. We do not provide investment, tax or legal advice.
