APPROACH TO BUSINESS
HolGoun’s business approach is to only invest in entities and
projects where HolGoun can contribute directly to the growth and
development of such entities or projects. This approach has seen HolGoun
acquire a strong and diverse portfolio of investments that spans
several sectors. HolGoun’s interests range from strategic minority
interests through to controlling shareholder interests in its underlying
investments.
In acquiring minority equity interests, HolGoun has not only focused
on the key business proposition but also on the strategic fit that it
has with the other shareholders in that entity. This approach has seen
HolGoun co-invest with similar shareholders in more than one business
venture.
In businesses where HolGoun has a controlling interest, the original
business concepts were on the most part developed within HolGoun and
capitalised principally by HolGoun.
HolGoun’s ongoing growth is informed by establishing a balanced and
robust portfolio of assets and the continuous assessment of the market
for new business opportunities..."
