Welcome to Anchor Capital

Tell us about you.

Institutional Solutions

Your mandate, our focus.

Segregated portfolios designed around your specific investment guidelines, governance requirements, and return objectives. Not a pooled fund. A portfolio built exclusively for your organisation.

Institutional investors require precision.

A pooled fund serves the average investor. A segregated mandate serves you. Your investment policy statement becomes our operating framework. Your risk budget becomes our constraint set. Your reporting requirements become our deliverables.

We assign a dedicated portfolio manager and supporting analyst team to each mandate. They know your guidelines, attend your investment committee meetings, and are accountable to your trustees. This is not a relationship managed through a call centre.

With a 30+ analyst research team and operations across five countries, we have the depth and operational infrastructure to manage complex mandates while maintaining the responsiveness of a boutique. Our investment committee meets weekly, and mandate-specific decisions can be executed within hours when markets demand it.

Mandate Capabilities

Built for Institutional Rigour

Custom Investment Guidelines

Your mandate, your rules. We construct portfolios within your specific parameters: asset class limits, sector constraints, ESG requirements, and benchmark targets.

Dedicated Portfolio Management

A named portfolio manager and analyst team assigned to your mandate. Not a pooled fund with your name on it. A genuinely bespoke portfolio.

Institutional Reporting

Monthly performance attribution, risk analytics, compliance reporting, and quarterly investment committee presentations. Designed for your board and trustees.
