About

KNOX Capital is owned by the investment managers, who have worked together for over three decades in macro analysis and asset allocation. Our goal is to deliver superior long term returns on long term savings by focusing on the macro trends of the world’s key economies and markets. This allied with a deep understanding of the ongoing process of technological innovation and globalisation, and the profound implication for politics, prosperity, social stability help determine our asset allocation model. In addition, and at the core of our process, is an understanding that any investment strategy which focuses on long term growth has sustainability, in all its various forms, at the core of its investment process. Knox only invests in businesses that comply with this long term approach.
