About Us
Gold Reef Capital is one of the first search funds to be established in South Africa, founded by Atish Dharampall, an experienced professional with vast industrial expertise , primarily servicing the Mining industry.
After being inspired by the success of search funds in the United States and Europe, Atish decided to launch his very own search fund in South Africa.
Search Funds are established with the purpose of acquiring and growing a small-mid market business using a combination of equity investment and various debt instruments. The company is then managed for growth by the incumbent CEO with support from an advisory board.
These funds offer an exciting new asset class to investors and an exit opportunity for the sellers.
Target companies benefit from new, innovative thinking which is introduced by the new young CEO and their network of investors and advisors.
