WHO WE ARE
Grant Stevens Financial ("GSF" or the "Company")
Grant Stevens Financial ("GSF" or the "Company") is an investment holding company structured as a closed-ended fund, operating under the legal framework of Liechtenstein. The Company is primarily engaged in acquiring and holding significant (but generally non-controlling) positions in a concentrated portfolio of large capitalization companies. GSF’s objective is to maximize its long-term compound annual growth rate in intrinsic value per share.
The Company benefits from Liechtenstein’s favorable regulatory environment, strong asset protection laws, and investor-friendly tax policies, making it an attractive jurisdiction for international investment operations.
The Company has appointed Avelard Capital ("Avelard" or the "Investment Manager"), a firm incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Cyprus, as its Investment Manager. Avelard Capital, under the supervision of GSF’s Board of Directors, is responsible for the management of the Company's investment portfolio in accordance with its investment policy.
​
GSF’s investment strategy is focused on high-quality businesses with strong fundamentals, predictable recurring cash flows, and long-term value creation potential. The majority of the portfolio is typically allocated to a select number of core holdings, predominantly in publicly listed, large-capitalization companies. Where appropriate, the Investment Manager may seek to catalyze operational, managerial, or governance enhancements to unlock shareholder value.
​
Risk management is an essential component of GSF’s strategy. The Investment Manager employs a disciplined approach to portfolio construction, introducing typically one to three new core positions annually, and may deploy hedging strategies to mitigate market-related downside risk or take advantage of asymmetric profit opportunities.
​
GSF is committed to a research-driven investment approach, leveraging its strategic partnerships and investment expertise to generate sustainable, long-term shareholder returns while maintaining the highest standards of discretion and asset protection.
