Empowering Capital
Where It Matters Most
A private investment and asset management firm representing a single-family office with a multigenerational legacy across selected frontier markets.
Purpose, Discretion, Conviction
Five Stones Capital is a single-family investment office stewarding capital across generations. Our focus is capital preservation first, followed by patient, disciplined compounding through selective deployment into complex and often misunderstood markets.
We operate with a long-term horizon, guided by judgment, preparation, and alignment rather than scale or momentum.
We invest where conditions are difficult, information is imperfect, and conventional capital hesitates—particularly across frontier markets, energy, and essential infrastructure. These environments reward resilience, local insight, and decisiveness. Our structure remains lean by design, allowing us to move quietly, partner selectively, and engage where conviction and execution matter more than visibility.
Selective by Design
Five Stones Capital operates across a narrow set of activities aligned with capital preservation, strategic control, and long-term legacy. We engage where complexity, jurisdictional nuance, and execution matter more than scale.
Direct Investments
We originate and lead high-conviction investments in situations shaped by transition, dislocation, or scarcity of capital. These are frequently frontier or edge-of-market opportunities—where information is incomplete, structures matter, and patient capital can create asymmetric outcomes.
Our focus includes energy and infrastructure assets, industrial and resource-linked businesses, and special situations requiring restructuring, recapitalisation, or transformation.
Asset Structuring
We design resilient, cross-border structures to protect and steward capital across generations. Our approach is discreet and jurisdiction-aware, balancing regulatory compliance with flexibility, foresight, and durability.
Working alongside trusted legal and fiduciary partners, we build frameworks that preserve capital, manage geopolitical exposure, and support orderly succession.
Strategic Advisory
In selected cases, we act as a trusted advisor to families and private capital navigating complex investments, restructurings, or cross-border transactions. Our role is independent, conflict-free, and grounded in experience rather than product.
We advise quietly, focusing on clarity of decision-making, alignment of interests, and disciplined execution—particularly where markets are opaque and conventional advice falls short.
Five Stones Capital is intentionally selective. We operate where few are willing to engage, not in pursuit of risk, but because we understand the terrain. Our activities are not designed for volume, but for resilience—executed with judgment, discretion, and long-term intent.
Where Complexity Creates Advantage
Five Stones Capital invests selectively in sectors where scarcity of capital, operational complexity, and long-term relevance converge. We focus on areas that demand judgment, local access, and patience—often operating off-market and away from crowded capital.
Real Assets & Special Situations
We invest in real assets where value is shaped by transition rather than momentum—assets requiring repositioning, restructuring, or long-term stewardship. Our approach is selective and relationship-driven, favoring situations where control, governance, and timing matter more than scale or visibility.
Energy & Resource Transformation
Energy security and resource efficiency sit at the core of our mandate. We deploy capital into transitional and frontier energy systems, including resource recovery and circular infrastructure, where environmental necessity meets economic inevitability.
Infrastructure & Strategic Logistics
We focus on essential infrastructure that underpins economic resilience—particularly in markets adapting to growth, climate pressure, and shifting trade patterns. Our interest lies in assets that are defensible, long-dated, and difficult to replicate.
We invest where conditions are imperfect, access is earned, and conviction—rather than consensus—defines opportunity.
