Peterhouse Capital

What Peterhouse Capital does

Peterhouse Capital Limited was a London-based boutique investment bank that provided investment banking, corporate finance advisory, and corporate broking services to growth companies in the United Kingdom. Founded in 2007 and headquartered at 80 Cheapside in the City of London, the firm operated with a small team of 11-50 employees and focused on advising growth-stage issuers on capital markets access, equity raises, and corporate finance mandates under a single integrated advisory model.

The firm operated as a private, privately-held limited company with no public listing, no disclosed funding rounds, and no institutional investors referenced in the source material. Its distribution was conducted through direct corporate advisory engagements with enterprise clients in the UK, with no disclosed pricing, transaction volumes, or revenue figures. Customer segmentation was horizontal, targeting growth companies seeking capital markets expertise, and the firm did not maintain a published product catalogue or technology platform.

On 1 July 2025 Peterhouse Capital Limited announced the combination of its Capital Markets business with Novum Securities Limited, and effective 1 October 2025 the combined operations were rebranded as AlbR Capital Limited at the same 80 Cheapside address. Following this combination, Peterhouse Capital Limited ceased conducting business, with legacy enquiries directed to [email protected] and active mandates transitioned to AlbR Capital Limited. The entity therefore no longer operates as a going concern, and the strategic intent of the combination is consolidation of the two firms' capital markets operations rather than independent expansion.

Direct peers

• Novum Securities Limited: Direct peer and merger partner: UK specialist broker and corporate adviser to growth and small-cap companies, with which Peterhouse combined its Capital Markets business to form AlbR Capital in October 2025. Overlapping client base, product set and distribution channel make it the most direct comparable.
• Cenkos Securities: UK specialist investment bank focused on small and mid-cap growth companies, providing corporate broking, advisory and capital raising services. Highly comparable to Peterhouse in target client segment, product mix and UK small-cap distribution model.
• finnCap (now Cavendish): UK advisory and corporate broking firm focused on growth companies, now part of Cavendish. Closely comparable to Peterhouse on growth-company niche, equity capital markets execution, and UK small-cap advisory services.
• WH Ireland: UK-based wealth management and corporate broking group with a growth-company advisory franchise. Comparable to Peterhouse on integrated advisory plus broking service offering, UK small/mid-cap client focus, and City of London distribution.
• Panmure Gordon: UK investment bank and corporate broker focused on growth and mid-cap companies, providing advisory, equity capital markets and research. Comparable to Peterhouse on product breadth, growth-company client base and London-based execution capability.
• Arden Partners: UK small and mid-cap corporate adviser and broker providing investment banking, equity research and corporate broking. Closely matches Peterhouse's boutique size, growth-company focus and integrated advisory-plus-broker offering.
• Singer Capital Markets: UK investment bank focused on small and mid-cap companies, with corporate finance advisory and broking. Comparable to Peterhouse on UK small-cap advisory positioning, growth-sector client base and integrated execution capabilities.
• Liberum Capital: UK investment bank providing research, sales, trading and corporate advisory to small and mid-cap companies. Overlaps directly with Peterhouse's corporate broking, capital markets advisory and growth-company client base.

Regional players

• Goodbody: Irish-headquartered stockbroker and corporate adviser with UK growth-company coverage, offering equity capital markets, M&A advisory and broking. Comparable service mix to Peterhouse though primarily Ireland-domiciled with UK cross-over.

Broad incumbents

• Investec (UK Investment Banking): UK and international investment bank with a specialist small and mid-cap advisory franchise alongside broader wealth and corporate banking. Comparable in product offering to Peterhouse but as a much larger, diversified incumbent.
