About EPIC Investment Partners

EPIC Investment Partners is a diversified independent UK asset management house with approximately £800 million in the capital markets and asset management division as of December 2024 (plus approximately £3 billion of assets overseen by the fund administration division), headquartered in London at Audrey House, Ely Place. The firm was founded in 2001 by Giles Brand and Hiren Patel, originally with Brit Insurance support and a focus on fixed income and specialist funds, and operates as a partner-owned independent firm with approximately 200 employees across FCA-regulated entities.

Investment thesis

EPIC Investment Partners deploys capital through multiple funds across five Markets fund categories (fixed income, equities, multi-asset, managed futures, hedge funds) plus Capital-arm vehicles, targeting multi-asset asset management plus advisory and fund administration. The strategy combines specialist fixed income (sovereign and credit) alongside equity, multi-asset, managed futures and alternative funds, with the Capital arm also active in private equity, credit and early-stage. Asset class focus spans fixed income, equities, multi-asset, commodities, alternatives and hedge funds and property. Geographic deployment is UK-based with globally diversified investment mandates. The platform spans four business lines (Capital, Markets, Administration, Advisory).

Recent activity

As a primarily public-markets asset manager, EPIC Investment Partners does not maintain a portfolio of private equity-style exits or platform acquisitions disclosed for 2024-2026. The platform continues active deployment across the four-business-line asset management and administration franchise. Detailed buyer names and multiple data available on Pro at €29/month.
