Arivan Capital is a London-based family office managing wealth through a dual mandate: preserving financial security for future generations whilst deploying capital towards organisations creating measurable social benefit. Our approach differs from conventional family offices by treating impact as a primary investment criterion rather than a secondary consideration.
Community-Owned Renewable Energy Infrastructure Investment
Arivan Capital distinguishes itself through capital allocation decisions that prioritise social outcomes, accepting modified risk-return profiles when necessary to achieve catalytic change.
While impact defines our mandate, institutional-grade wealth management provides the capability to execute it. Arivan Capital operates with the rigorous discipline of a Tier-1 financial institution, safeguarding capital through sophisticated liability management and long-term asset allocation strategies.
We manage a robust core portfolio of global public equities and fixed income securities, utilising active risk management and currency hedging to ensure liquidity and capital preservation across market cycles.
Arivan Capital serves as the central architect for intergenerational succession. We facilitate family council governance, structure educational pathways for next-generation members and oversee complex trust administration to ensure unity and continuity of purpose.
Our team coordinates multi-jurisdictional tax compliance and estate planning, navigating cross-border regulatory environments to optimise wealth transfer and minimise structural inefficiencies.
