A family-owned British group. We invest in talented teams at any stage and in any sector, and we take the long view rather than chasing the quick return.
Companies in the group
The group
Operating businesses and asset companies, held directly by BC Group Holdings. Each is run by its own management; the group provides capital, structure and patience.
Approach
We are not a fund and we have no exit timetable. Businesses are acquired or built to be owned indefinitely. We believe taking the longer view improves the quality of decision making and yields more valuable companies.
Each company has its own management and its own accountability. The group supplies capital, governance and introductions — not day-to-day instruction.
Trading and asset companies are held apart. Each business stands on its own balance sheet, so the risk in one does not become the risk in all.
Investment
We invest in talented individuals and teams who, at their core, want to make the world a better place. We are not chasing quick wins — we would rather make the right decision than the quickest one, and that shapes what interests us.
Typical commitment: [RANGE TO BE CONFIRMED], with capacity to follow on.
Approaches from owners, advisers and intermediaries are welcome. Please write to us at enquiries@bcgroupholdings.com with a short summary rather than a full data pack in the first instance.
Responsibility
Owning businesses for decades means living with the consequences of how they were run. That tends to sharpen the mind.
We pay suppliers on their terms, not ours. We disclose our interests before we are asked. And we decline work we would struggle to explain afterwards — not because a policy says so, but because a business you intend to own for thirty years cannot afford the alternative.
Where a lower-impact option exists and works, we take it — in how our buildings are run, how our suppliers are chosen and how our offices operate. We are also clear about the limits: a classic car collection and a football ground are not low-carbon enterprises, and we will not claim otherwise. We would rather make a smaller honest claim than a larger one we cannot evidence.
About
BC Group Holdings is a family-owned group of companies. Founded by serial entrepreneur Andy Mahoney, the group builds long-term companies and investments that make a difference to the world.
The group exists to do things properly: work with great people and build good businesses, taking a long-term view rather than chasing quick wins. That means no external investors to satisfy, no fund life to manage against, and no pressure to sell a business that is working simply because a clock has run out.
The companies in the group have little in common on the surface — surgical technology, classic cars, a football club, residential property. What they share is a passion for innovation, an entrepreneurial spirit, and a focus on doing things the right way rather than cutting corners.
The group is a UK holding company, managed from London, Geneva and Dubai, with its registered office in Mayfair, London.
