Our Culture

At Legatum we believe that our culture is fundamental to our ability to create a lasting legacy of investment success. We are committed to building a culture characterised by professional excellence, creativity, performance, haste, entrepreneurship, integrity, teamwork and personal responsibility.

Excellence

At Legatum we have developed a culture of excellence in investing. We take great pride in the quality of our work. To maintain our success we take time to identify and recruit the very best candidate for every job, selecting our people one by one. In business, we know that the quality of our people will determine our success.

Creativity

We strive to be imaginative and creative in all that we do. We do not seek change for change's sake but look to continually innovate and refine our approaches, challenging ourselves to find creative solutions to non-standard problems.

Performance

Conceptualisation of an idea is only the beginning. To succeed we have a relentless attention to detail, a sense of urgency and a focus on results-based performance.

Haste

We work with haste pursuing opportunities as they arise and allocating our resources accordingly.

Entrepreneurship

Whether in a large or small enterprise, entrepreneurs are crucial to a company's development. We recognise this reality and seek to hire people who think like entrepreneurs and who make decisions based on their beliefs rather than their fears.

Integrity

Integrity and honesty are at the heart of our business. We share a commitment to high ethical standards in everything we do, both at work and in our personal lives.

Teamwork

We stress teamwork in everything we do. While individual creativity is always encouraged, we have found that team effort often produces the best results. We have no room for those who put their personal interests ahead of the interests of the firm.

Responsibility

At Legatum, when someone is managing a project, they take full responsibility for every aspect of its delivery.
