Acorn provides a platform for wealthy individuals and families to participate directly into private equity through the different Acorn Funds. Acorn focuses on the Sub-Saharan SME sector in growing industries with companies that have scope for significant and sustainable growth. Each fund managed by the Acorn team is exclusive and is not open to the public.

Acorn is one of a few dedicated private equity investment houses in South Africa that have a category II approved license from the FSB. License number 41196.
South Africa, by comparison to some of the more mature markets, has some optimistic news in the form of infrastructure spend, limited credit crunch exposure, interest rate head room and the FIFA 2010 Soccer World Cup to look forward to. I remain positive with regards to the private equity industry in the medium to long term."
