Parabellum Investments has offices in London, Frankfurt, Dubai, Sydney, Melbourne, and Bangalore, enabling the firm to provide both operational and financial support to the companies across its portfolio.

The operational structure of Parabellum Investments

When it comes to share capital, Parabellum Investments will usually seek to acquire the controlling stake in a company. It occasionally partners with like-minded firms on larger deals but only where it can retain a sufficient level of control – and even then, will only work with companies where a strong working relationship can be achieved.

The capital to buy portfolio companies is Parabellum Investments’ own, generated directly from investment activities. It therefore truly understands what it takes to invest its own capital, and the journey required to get there. To this end, decisions can be made swiftly without the need to consult an investment committee or external investors, or wade through endless amounts of red tape.

Decisions are quick and unpolitical, with dialogue directly with the decision maker.

Transactions are never executed with an exit in mind and there is no prescribed time frame to “exit”. The typical three-to-five-year investment horizon does not apply. Indeed, Parabellum Investments has been an investor in some companies for over ten years.

How Parabellum Investments works

The way of working is important to everyone at Parabellum Investments because it directly reflects the shared values and styles across the team. This fosters an environment where the investee companies feel supported and constructively challenged rather than burdened with inane reporting or trapped in endless board meetings.

In terms of transactions with vendors, Parabellum Investments will always be clear from the outset and at all stages of the process. The team will set price expectations early, will not “price chip” and will aim to complete due diligence in two months or less – most of which is usually done internally.

The Parabellum Investments team is always acutely aware of the importance of continuity of service post-acquisition and the protection of the vendor’s reputation, especially in the case of corporate disposals.

The buying pipeline

Parabellum Investments’ deal flow is varied.

However, typically, it tends to acquire companies either from large corporate groups seeking to dispose of non-core assets to a reputable and operational buyer. It also acquires from owners or operators who are also keen to ensure the business is sold to an operational buyer who will ensure continuity of trading and employees are well looked after. Parabellum Investments will also transact with private equity sellers and venture capital firms.
