BIG VALUES

We employ a consistent set of values in everything we do. BIG harnesses the value of British institutions to develop high value global opportunities that can benefit from the safety of these structures in an apolitical format.

British Merchant Banks were instrumental catalysts in building the infrastructure of the modern world. British International Group applies some of these core values to build the dynamic corporations of the future.

  • LEADERSHIP

    We comprise acclaimed leaders in government, technology and finance

  • SUSTAINABILITY

    Our platforms deliver sustainable industry solutions on a global scale

  • CONVICTION

    We support our companies with capital and advice to become market leaders

  • LONG-TERM

    BIG takes a long-term view alongside countries and families

  • FOCUS

    BIG focuses on permanent capital vehicles for disruptive industries

  • GLOBALISM

    We pursue investments which require entrepreneurialism on a global scale

  • SCALE

    BIG exclusively develops large cap vehicles that are nationally and regionally relevant

  • ALIGNMENT

    Our vehicles always harness the support of local government and communities

  • ENTREPRENEURIALISM

    BIG focuses on disruptive industries that lay the building blocks for the infrastructure of the future. The British merchant banks of the 19th century invested in key businesses that drove development around the world. BIG seeks to develop and invest in the infrastructure of tomorrow.  BIG invests in businesses that enable growth for technology and financial systems. BIG focuses on industries that require creativity and entrepreneurialism on a global scale.

  • ALIGNMENT

    BIG is a holding company of permanent capital vehicles owned by our founders. BIG values relationships and stands by friendships for the long term. BIG commits our own management capital to investments.  We have conviction in our platforms and work with long term investors in permanent capital vehicles. Our investments are for the long term and for the future. We work exclusively with sovereign investors and UHNW families.

  • DEVELOPMENT

    Traditional Private Equity is a fickle friend for long-term national investment. Its limited fund life cannot match the long term vision of national development programmes. Our responsibility is to use our capital alongside our national partners, improving lives for their people. BIG works with permanent capital that has support from local government and communities, exclusively on large cap vehicles.
