Unlocking Value. Catalysing Growth. Superior Returns.

 

Hanover Investors is an alternative investment firm focused on fundamental investing across private equity, public equity and credit.

Hanover was founded in 2002 with a simple investment philosophy: to invest in situations where we can influence the main levers of value creation by utilising deep research, by employing an active approach to ownership and drawing on a breadth of structuring expertise. This investment style has delivered consistent, market-leading returns for over two decades.

Hanover is led by its Founder, Matthew Peacock, alongside an experienced team of investment professionals. Hanover has owned and operated dozens of public and private businesses across Europe and the United States, many of which have a global presence.

Hanover puts a very strong emphasis on diversity of background and thought, something we believe makes for better quality culture and decision making. Whilst we have different experiences, backgrounds and technical specialties, what we share is a vocation for understanding and improving businesses.


For over 20 years Hanover’s investment philosophy has been consistent. We:

1. Invest in markets where our deep, bottom-up research and strong networks can provide a true source of edge.

2. Focus on long-term value, allowing us to take advantage of periodic market and valuation dislocations.

3. Take an active and engaged approach to deliver added value to our portfolio beyond just capital.

4. Ensure we have a margin of safety to protect our downside exposure.

5. Provide flexibility of capital, allowing us to unlock value where many investors cannot.
