About Aranstone

Effective Date: September 2024

Aranstone Investments Limited (‘Aranstone’) is a privately owned advisory company that provides strategic and operational support to founder and family-owned SMEs across Southern England. Our core services focus on improving profitability, strengthening systems, and preparing businesses for future transition.

In select cases, and where commercially appropriate, we may support clients by facilitating introductions to third-party capital providers or investment professionals. We may also participate in success-based or equity-aligned outcomes, where this is mutually agreed and in line with the objectives of the business and its owners.

Legal Considerations

Navigating Investment Responsibilities

Engaging in private investments carries significant legal implications that investors must be aware of. It is crucial to understand the contractual obligations and the potential risks associated with each investment decision. At Aranstone, we emphasize the importance of due diligence and informed consent, ensuring that our clients are fully aware of their rights and responsibilities.
