We Are
Thorney
When Thorney’s Founder and Chairman Alex Waislitz established his investment company in 1991, he had a vision of being a “thorn in the side” of complacent company managers not delivering full value to shareholders.
Thorney aims to take an active role in the companies we invest in, working together with boards and management to unlock value and improve shareholder returns. Thorney has always been prepared to agitate for change when warranted, this remains part of our DNA today. At Thorney, investing is never a static game. We work with an ethos that “the more we roll up our sleeves and get involved, the more we will ensure success”.
While Alex Waislitz prefers the term “constructivist” to “activist” when describing Thorney’s investment style, the Thorney name is a constant reminder that we will always strive to improve shareholder returns and fight against complacency wherever it is evident.
“We are proud of Thorney’s reputation for due diligence, constructivist support and mentoring of small companies with the aim of increasing value for all shareholders.”
