Introduction

LSE Ventures Limited (LSEVL) oversees and makes equity-oriented investments in emerging and growth-stage companies needing critical financing for bootstrapping their ongoing and future operations/projects.

LSEVL also manages the legacy equity investments having been made by the erstwhile LSE from the time of its functioning as a stock exchange. These investments make LSEVL a key stakeholder in the domestic capital market because of being a major shareholder in many critical capital market infrastructure companies, like Pakistan Credit Rating Agency Limited (PACRA), National Clearing Company of Pakistan Limited (NCCPL), Central Depository Company Limited (CDC) and Pakistan Mercantile Exchange (PMEX).

LSEVL only invests in such businesses which have a history of positive cash flow generation, strong entrepreneurial leadership, clearly laid down future growth strategy, and an acknowledged competitive edge over their peers.
