Palliser Capital (UK) Ltd

Following the death of founder Paul Myners in August 2023 (per The Guardian), the firm's leadership structure has not been formally disclosed. Palliser has not publicly named a single successor as CIO or managing director, and the investment team continues to operate under the existing partnership model.

Palliser Capital invests primarily through direct public equity positions where it seeks activist engagement. The firm does not typically participate in third-party fund commitments or venture capital as a limited partner. Its structure concentrates capital in a small number of high-conviction holdings where it can push for operational or strategic change.

Palliser Capital targets a range of sectors but is known for activism in industrial, technology, and financial companies. The firm has taken public stakes in Siemens Energy (industrial energy) and has engaged with UK-listed companies across consumer goods and utilities. It avoids passive index-matching or diversified mandates and does not commit to any sector exclusion list.

Palliser Capital is an asset manager, not a family office. It is incorporated as a limited company (UK Ltd) and manages pooled capital from external limited partners alongside the founding principal's own wealth. The firm's governance and fee structures follow typical hedge fund / activist manager norms.

Palliser primarily targets listed public companies, not private or venture-stage businesses. Its activism approach typically begins with a minority equity stake, followed by private engagement with management and, if necessary, public campaigns. The firm does not typically participate in private placements or IPOs as a lead order.
