Who we are

Westbrooke Alternative Asset Management (WAAM) is a multi-asset, multi-strategy manager of investment funds and products structured to create and preserve wealth through investments in private equity, listed equity, real estate and private debt.

Our team comprises a tight group of experienced, entrepreneurial professionals who apply a broad range of skills across multiple financial disciplines and tap into a wide network of industry contacts to structure and manage alternative investments.

Our investment activities are generally uncorrelated to the traditional equity, property and debt markets. Notwithstanding that their underlying structure might be complex, they are designed to deliver a simple investable outcome – predictable, sustainable, risk-managed returns for investors in an increasingly complex fiduciary and legislative environment.

Shareholders

Founded in 2012, WAAM is owned by Westbrooke Group shareholders including the Capricorn Capital Group, Capricorn Ventures and management.

Collectively, the shareholders of WAAM have access to a deep well of intellectual and financial capital. We collaborate closely, share know-how and resources, and draw on a broad network of local and international contacts to reach successful outcomes and grow and protect investors’ capital.
