Accion Capital Management Pte Ltd

Our Investment Approach

Accion Capital’s principal investment objective is to seek medium-term capital appreciation through investments in companies with high growth potential and where there are opportunities for Accion Capital to work with them to grow into thriving and sustainable corporations. 

The potential upside for our investments will come from the successful implementation of two primary strategies: (i) providing the necessary growth capital and (ii) providing operational, business development, strategic and financial direction to the investee companies. This potential upside will be realised through a clear and well-defined exit strategy.
