Hi all - does anyone have a list of search investors that invest in traditional and / or self-funded deals in the UK?

Thanks!

Perhaps worth a few additional points on this: Unlike the US, the UK has comprehensive information available on who owns shares in UK companies - you can see this on Companies House. Our company has structured data on this, so we have detailed sector data on >160k individual investors by industry and cheque size.

I'm not an expert on what Search fund structures typically look like when raising, but there's a big pool of family office capital, smaller funds (as above), and capital from individual Angel investors, who invest all sorts of cheque sizes. It seems Searchers would benefit from finding investors in their sector that have deployed recently, and reaching out. Investors are always willing to speak to entrepreneurially-minded people.
