Being a Pooled Development Fund

 

Austock Group is a registered Pooled Development Fund (“PDF") specialising in the provision of development capital to emerging businesses within, or providing technological developments to, the financial services sector.

 

Austock applies a rigorous due diligence and assessment process to ensure its investee companies have the potential for high capital growth.

 

Since its establishment in 1999, Austock has invested in over 14 investee companies.

 

Austock has a solid equity base and cash flow and intends to actively seek new proposals and commercialise the infrastructure it has developed.

 

Austock will consider an investment:

 

  • In small to medium sized Australian companies with initiatives which provide innovative and technically oriented solutions specifically to the financial sector;
  • Operate in markets dominated by foreign owned financial organisations where the opportunity exists to provide a uniquely Australian response to changing circumstances;
  • Encourage employment; and
  • which have the potential for export.

 

The investment must be an eligible investment under the Pooled Development Funds Act 1992.

 

Austock welcomes applications for funding from organisations which satisfy its investment criteria.
