“We watch for opportunities outside the usual boundaries – locally, regionally and globally.”

Approximately seventy percent of the Smart Growth partnerships’ and portfolio is outside of the developed countries, primarily in emerging markets and lately, principally in Turkey.
What we are doing is finding the places where others are not willing to go, going there and quickly learning. Next, we use our unique expertise and insights to create, capture and deliver value. We can tell you that there are a lot of undiscovered opportunities out there.
The art of investing is about seeing opportunities that other managers don’t. Everybody sees the same situation, but there are only a few of us who end up investing and even fewer that perform well. Smart Growth offers creative portfolios, unique partnerships, in depth economic consulting, selected services and insights that deliver value in today’s changing markets.

Smart Growth will carry out a detailed and methodical analysis of partners & client firm’s competitive advantages in order to lay the foundations for a differentiated positioning which will be communicated consistently across all documentation. Smart Growth’s prior investment experience and marketing expertise is essential to this process.

Once these analyses are complete, the fundraising is executed in six phases, each with clear milestones:

Phase I	Phase II	Phase III	Phase IV	Phase V	Phase VI
Structuring	Positioning and documentation	Pre-marketing	Fundraising phase I	Fundraising phase II	Post-closing
