Investor Details Founded: 2006

Highclere International Investors is a UK-based private investment firm specializing in international small and mid-cap equity investments. Founded in 2006, the firm focuses on generating absolute returns for clients over the long term by investing in small and medium-sized companies listed outside North America. The firm is independent and employee-owned, with its headquarters in London and a client service office in Westport, Connecticut.

The firm's investment strategy is characterized by a contrarian approach, seeking opportunities in under-researched markets and companies. Highclere International Investors manages two closely related investment programs: an international smaller companies program launched in 2006 and an international SMID program launched in 2008. Both programs are offered via US-domiciled commingled pools open to US and non-US taxable and tax-exempt investors.

Highclere International Investors has a track record of success, regularly ranking in the top quartile of US investment advisers. The firm has been recognized with the Queen's Award for International Trade for outstanding short-term growth in overseas sales over the last three years. The team is led by CEO and Portfolio Manager Ed Makin, who has over 35 years of experience in international equity markets. The investment team is supported by professionals dedicated to marketing, client service, and operations, fostering a collegiate culture and a team-based investment process.
