Alceon Group

What Alceon Group does

Alceon Group is a privately-held, multi-strategy alternative investment manager headquartered in Sydney, founded in 2010 by Trevor Loewensohn, Phil Green and Morris Symonds. The firm operates across three core strategies — Real Estate, Private Equity and Hybrid Solutions — exclusively focused on the Australian and New Zealand markets, and manages approximately AU$5.5 billion across its total investment business and A$4.7 billion in real estate investments as of early 2026. It invests across the capital stack via pooled funds, co-investments and bespoke mandates, with 100+ specialists across five ANZ offices (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Auckland).

Alceon's product set spans property debt and equity funds (Alceon Australian Property Fund, Alceon Debt Income Fund, Alceon Real Estate Corporate Senior Master Fund), the evergreen Alceon Partners Fund for mid-market special situations, the Alceon Private Equity Access Fund for founder-led lower mid-market companies, the Alceon Special Opportunities Fund for complex lending, and the newly launched Data Centre Catalyst Fund. The firm invests its own balance sheet alongside clients in every transaction and holds long-duration minority or majority stakes in founder-led businesses — recent examples include TVH (49%), Boss Engineering (50%) and Shadbolt (70%) — with a realised private equity track record of approximately 42% net investor IRR and ~1.8x cash multiple across 9 exits over 15 years.

The business model is anchored on recurring management fees on AU$5.5B of investment business supplemented by performance fees, carried interest and balance-sheet co-investment returns. Distribution is wholesale-only under AFSL 345692, targeting institutional investors, family offices, financial advisers and HNW individuals via direct institutional sales, adviser networks and family office relationships. The firm is partner-led, with founders retaining major ownership stakes alongside CEO David Gribble (appointed February 2025 from Goldman Sachs Asset Management). Notable strategic developments in 2024-26 include the Efex divestiture to Advent Partners and an unusually concentrated 2026 fund-raise cadence into data centres, private credit and private equity access.
