Our story
At the heart of River Capital is community
River Capital was established by Barry and Suzi Carp in 1996 with the objective of finding great investment opportunities that would create value for those close – their family, friends, and colleagues.
“Our passion and focus is finding great businesses run by great people. What motivates all of us is investing in these opportunities and then being able to invite our family and friends to invest alongside us.” – Barry Carp
“The heart of River Capital is our community. It’s our deep connections that we share with our co-investors, partners, family and team. It’s these relationships that drive our success and remain at the core of everything we do.” – Suzi Carp
Jim Craig joined the River Board in 2011 and after a successful career with Macquarie, became a Partner in the firm, establishing the Dividend Plus Fund.
“After partnering with River and members of the Investment Committee for many years, it seemed a natural progression to formalise how we invest together.” – Jim Craig
Over the past three decades, River’s community of value-aligned investors has grown significantly, but one thing that remains unchanged is our commitment to and recognition of the power of compounding, and its ability to create wealth over the long term for all.
