Alpha holdings has been established by a team of seasoned finance professionals who have recognized an opportunity to combine a number of small fund management groups into one larger group thus capitalizing on manpower, administration and costs.

The company is growing its stable of fund management and financial services entities under a carefully designed and monitored plan where due diligence is the key to the acquisition and ongoing amalgamation of products and services are the key to growth. We are territory and fund sector agnostic seeking value and opportunity over any other factor.

Proprietary funds

Alpha have teamed up with a Luxembourg company, GFH Group, specialists in establishing highly regulated umbrella funds, fund administration and fund distribution to bring to the market Alphas own specialist funds range. The GFH route offers complete transparency and protection for the investor under Luxembourg regulation.




Alpha Special Situations fund.

With a core focus on companies in the later stages of preparing for a public listing and other high value propositions within listed equity, this fund will be target as small investments at significant discounts to the open market price.

Our corporate funding strategy incorporates 3 main uses of proceeds:

Stage A (pre IPO)
A company is funded through its early stages of corporate development in order to provide working capital for it to build corporate assets and ensure internal process control. A company who has already commenced the ‘go public route’ possible contribution to the ‘go public’ fee schedule enabling the company to achieve public status without a drag on the cash flows and capital. We will work with our partner company, GE Partners, to help prepare the company to be in the best possible shape for an IPO thus providing maximum gain for the fund. Investment at Stage A will be secured convertible debt with equity enhancements.

Stage B (post IPO)
To provide a company with the required capital to grow revenues through either its product portfolio or through regional expansion. Companies looking for stage B finance in order meet current liabilities will not be entertained, a clear and defined growth plan will be key to any decision process with expected likely discount target to current bid price of any security of 25 % to 50%. An M&A strategy could also be considered here.

Stage C (Private)
Private ventures with a defined asset valuation often offer tremendous growth potential without the need or potential for a public listing at this stage of a company’s development, but with a targeted IPO/ listing at some point in the next 24 months. Any investment in Stage C companies will be debt with equity combined. A company’s ability to service the debt alongside any securable assets will be key in the decision making process.

Anticipated spread of funds:
Stage A 50%
Stage B 25%
Stage C 20%
Cash 5%
