Australian Business Growth Fund

The Australian Business Growth Fund (ABGF) provides growth capital to small and medium-sized Australian businesses. As a dedicated investment fund, ABGF acts as a minority investor and strategic partner, deploying capital for expansion, new product development, mergers, acquisitions, and succession planning. It supports ambitious enterprises ready to scale, offering capital, expertise, and networks.

ABGF was established through a public-private partnership between the Australian Federal Government and six prominent banks. This alliance addressed a critical market gap for flexible growth capital. Anthony Healy joined as inaugural CEO in October 2020, having championed the fund's creation. His banking background and focus on SME support informed the need for patient, long-term capital.

The fund serves growth-oriented Australian businesses and disruptors across the SME sector. ABGF’s vision is to be a leading Australian mid-market growth fund, committed to empowering its investee companies to thrive. It provides comprehensive backing, enabling businesses to innovate and expand operations.
