How we invest
A structured process for evaluating every opportunity.
Every business is different, but structured investment requires a consistent process. Nexus Capital assesses each opportunity against its investment mandate, commercial fundamentals, leadership capability, financial position, risks and potential for value creation.
Submission of an opportunity does not constitute an offer of funding or create an obligation on Nexus Capital to proceed.
Investment process
From initial submission to active partnership.
- Stage 101
Initial submission
The founder or authorised representative submits high-level information about the business, investment requirement and proposed use of capital.
- Stage 202
Mandate assessment
Nexus Capital assesses whether the opportunity fits its geographic, commercial, sector and stage preferences.
- Stage 303
Confidential discussion
Where there is potential alignment, an introductory discussion is held to understand the business, its leadership team, funding requirement and strategic objectives.
- Stage 404
Preliminary assessment
Nexus Capital may review the business model, market opportunity, financial performance, capital requirements, operational position and proposed pathway to growth.
- Stage 505
Due diligence and structuring
Suitable opportunities may proceed to more detailed commercial, financial, operational, legal and technical due diligence. The appropriate investment structure and governance arrangements are developed during this stage.
- Stage 606
Investment decision
Any investment remains subject to internal approval, satisfactory due diligence, agreement on valuation and structure, and the execution of formal legal agreements.
