About

Piexton Capital is a London-based placement agent and strategic capital advisor. We work with a select number of specialist long-only, alternative, and digital asset managers, helping them access institutional investors and family offices across the UK, Europe, and Southern Africa. Our clients are typically high-performing, independent spin-outs from larger firms — focused, performance-driven, and looking to build their brand and deepen institutional traction.

In parallel, Piexton connects global capital providers with large-scale opportunities across Africa’s energy transition, infrastructure, and resource sectors. We support transactions of USD 100 million and above, enabling development, financing, and carbon monetization of high-impact projects — and act as trusted on-the-ground partners to facilitate execution.
