- >>ESTABLISHED AND RAN NZ PRIVATE EQUITY BUSINESS FOR GOLDMAN SACHS JBWERE (2001 – 2007)
-
Paul Chrystall developed a NZ-based private equity fund that could provide a successful model, permit both development and buy-out activity, and access the growing local opportunity for private investment available. Hauraki No. 1 and Hauraki No. 2 followed. Brent Lawgun joined Paul to manage the Hauraki Funds from inception.
- >>ESTABLISHED MAUI CAPITAL AND RAISED MAUI CAPITAL INDIGO FUND (2008)
-
Following the success of the Hauraki Funds, members of the Maui team left Goldman Sachs JBWere to establish Maui Capital and raise the Maui Indigo Fund in 2008. The Indigo Fund has over $250 million of committed capital sourced from New Zealand investors and Australian specialist fund-of-fund institutions.
- >>A CONTINUATION OF THE SAME APPROACH
-
The Maui team has retained to this day its original imprint – the facilitation of investment by successful management teams, and the partnering with managers to actively drive business success and growth. Maui’s modus operandi is successful partnership. The private equity investment business is an involved and committed participation with managers requiring their sponsoring and/or development to achieve success.
