Independent. Entrepreneurial.
Built to endure.
Preqin Capital was founded in Grand Cayman in 1989 with a clear and focused ambition: to provide astute, innovative and conviction-driven investment solutions to private and institutional clients. More than three decades later, that ambition remains the organising principle of the firm.
The firm was founded by a small group of investment professionals who believed that private and institutional clients deserved an alternative to the conventional asset-management model — one organised around conviction, disciplined by independence, and structured to endure.
From our earliest days, we have been guided by the same principles: that sophisticated investors value sophisticated counsel; that investment performance is the product of intellectual rigour and patient capital; and that the stewardship of wealth is a long-term undertaking.
These principles have shaped every aspect of the firm — its culture, its governance, its investment process, and the relationships we maintain with clients across the world.
Six principles, enduring
History
More than three decades of stewardship, through every market environment of the modern era.
Entrepreneurial Culture
Decentralised, owner-minded, and committed to acting on conviction rather than consensus.
Independence
Structurally free to invest where we believe the opportunity is greatest, and to say no when it is not.
Governance
Robust governance frameworks, clear decision rights, and accountability at every level of the firm.
Risk Management
Risk ownership sits with the investment teams closest to the decisions being made — supported by independent oversight.
Global Presence
Serving clients across the Cayman Islands, Continental Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America.
