AIV Capital is a specialised investment firm focused on originating and overseeing direct private market investments across buyout and growth-stage venture strategies. Founded with the conviction—shaped by decades of investing experience across market cycles—that long-term success in private markets is built on focus, rigour, and execution.

Who We Are

We apply a selective, high-conviction approach to investing, targeting opportunities where our sector insight, analytical discipline, and operational frameworks can meaningfully accelerate value creation.

How We Think

We do not chase volume—we pursue clarity. Each investment thesis is built from first principles, grounded in market mapping, and validated through extensive diligence. We look for fundamentals that support transformation and growth, and we structure our involvement to enable hands-on execution alongside management.
