Our local insight
uncovers what
others miss.
We are Local Insight Investors — combining on-the-ground intelligence with institutional discipline to identify exceptional businesses and assets around the world.
​
Our team connects local knowledge with global perspective to uncover opportunities often overlooked by the broader investment community.
​
Founded in London and backed by institutional capital, GIS applies its philosophy across listed and private markets, spanning global equities, private equity, and multi-asset portfolios.
"Where others see complexity, we see opportunity."
We specialise in complex markets where inefficiencies create opportunity.
GIS focuses on fragmented, under-researched areas where traditional coverage is thin and valuations are often misaligned with fundamentals. These inefficiencies demand deep analysis, patience, and active management — qualities that define our approach.
We invest where passive strategies fall short.
In markets shaped by structural change and information gaps, indices cannot capture the nuance or local intelligence required to identify the next generation of global leaders. We believe sustained outperformance comes from understanding what others overlook — not from following the crowd.
​
We translate local insight into global opportunity.
Through a worldwide network of analysts, partners, and industry specialists, we uncover growth and value in markets others overlook. We apply these insights across both listed and private markets, following a single, disciplined philosophy — investing in smaller, high-quality businesses at the early stages of their growth, positioned to become the future leaders of tomorrow.
OUR STRATEGIES
Global Smaller Companies
Identifying the Future Leaders of Tomorrow
A long-only, high-conviction equities strategy focused on listed small and mid-sized companies worldwide that combine strong fundamentals, sustainable growth, and compelling value.

Emerging India
Investing in India's Next Generation of Leaders
This long-only high conviction equities strategy targets both listed and unlisted Indian companies that represent the country’s evolving growth story — from industrial innovation and digital transformation to financial inclusion and consumer expansion. By working closely with local partners and entrepreneurs, GIS identifies scalable businesses that stand to define India’s economic future.
European Private Equity
Backing Europe's Future Leaders
A private equity strategy focused on smaller, growth-stage European businesses with proven models, strong competitive positioning, and the capacity to scale.
