Investments & Alternative Investments
Private equity, private credit, real estate, real assets and co-investments, often alongside our own capital.
In an age of algorithms, we offer vision and a human touch: a London private office for investment and life.
Vision is in our name. We look for the trends that will shape the coming decades, invest in them with our own capital and alongside our clients, and bring them into our clients’ lives today.
In our understanding, a portfolio holds more than alternative investments that bring steady income to us and to our clients. It also holds a way of life, personal values, passions and the people we help.
Together with our clients we love sport, travel and new discoveries. We look after the natural world and want to pass a sustainable future on to the generations that follow.
To see the future early, invest in it with the families we serve and bring it into their lives personally.

The same convictions guide our portfolio and our clients’ lives. When we believe in a trend, we invest in it and we make it part of how our families live.
We use the best technology to study markets and spot trends early. Every decision, every introduction and every conversation stays with people who know your family.
We coordinate every part of a family’s affairs, drawing on our own team and on trusted specialists in each jurisdiction where our clients live, invest and give.

We share our clients’ love of the outdoors, of sport and of the wild places worth protecting. Many of our best conversations happen far from a desk.
From a single seed, a forest.
We chose the pine cone because it stands for both halves of our name: growth and vision. It does, quietly and over many years, what we try to do for the families we serve.
Ours is a close-knit team with deep experience serving private clients around the world. We understand cross-border lives because we live them: different countries, languages, legal systems and cultures are our everyday work.
Behind the team stands a network built over many years across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the Americas: private bankers, lawyers, tax advisers, physicians and specialists we know personally and trust.
London is our home. Our interests sometimes lie in the most remote corners of the planet, and we go there with our clients.
Every relationship starts with an unhurried conversation about your family, your plans and what matters most. Everything you share with us is held in strict confidence.
