Small - Mid Cap Investments
We place our bets on the agility of relatively small companies watching them capitalise on emerging trends and market niches. With generally low analyst coverage in these sectors, our team aims to discover hidden gems and benefit from market inefficiencies.
Anchor Investments
Strategic stakes in companies with robust fundamentals form the backbone of our portfolio. These anchor investments provide stability during market storms and long-term growth prospects.
Small - Mid Cap Investments
We don’t wait for companies to ring the IPO bell; we position ourselves ahead of the curve. Our pre-IPO investments capture value before the market catches wind.
- Opportunity
Unlocking Growth Opportunities
At MAIQ, we focus on investing in mid to late-stage companies, aiming to provide favourable risk-adjusted returns, as depicted in the following analysis.
In listed markets, capital availability is high, and business model risk is low.
However, with many global and domestic institutional investors active in this space, competition for quality opportunities is intense, often making it harder for funds to carve out a unique edge.
Listed Market
Active Players
5-6 active late-stage Pre-IPO Funds
Capital Availability
Low Supply of Capital
Business Model Risk
Low: Matured businesses; funding for stable growth and profitability
Holding Period
< 5 yrs
Mid-Late Stage
Over 50 PE funds with a 5-10 year holding period provide capital to early-stage companies, where product-market fit is unproven, requiring multiple business model pivots and continuous funding to stay afloat.
