Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at L1 Capital?
Raphael Lamm and Mark Landau serve as co-Managing Partners and oversee investment decisions. Lamm leads the listed-equities strategy while Landau focuses on direct private investments (per public record).
How does L1 Capital source proprietary deal flow?
L1 Capital sources deals through its network of Australian and international relationships, direct outreach to undervalued public companies, and partnerships with corporate advisors. Its real estate arm identifies off-market property and infrastructure assets through local market expertise (per the firm's communications).
Is L1 Capital structured as a family office or as an asset manager?
L1 Capital is structured as an asset manager — specifically an alternative investment firm — not a single family office. It manages capital for external clients including high-net-worth individuals, institutions, and family offices, alongside the principals' own capital.
What investment stages does L1 Capital typically target?
L1 Capital focuses primarily on public equities through a long-short hedge fund strategy, but also makes direct private investments in real estate and infrastructure. Its public-market positions are typically concentrated in mid-to-large-cap companies, while direct deals range from acquisitions of operating assets to development projects.
Which sectors does L1 Capital explicitly avoid?
L1 Capital does not publicly disclose explicit avoidance sectors, but its disclosed holdings and investments suggest a focus on real assets, consumer staples, and materials, with limited exposure to early-stage technology or high-growth speculative sectors (per public filings).
Does L1 Capital maintain philanthropic structures, and how are they separated?
Yes, L1 Capital operates the L1 Capital Foundation, a charitable entity focused on community and health initiatives. The foundation is funded separately from the firm's investment capital and operates independently from the investment management business (per the firm's public communications).
