The March Group’s core business activity involves investing its own equity in the form of direct participations in selected industry sectors. March’s aim is to take actively part in the decision-making process of companies in which it invests. The Group’s overall governance and its strategic priorities are determined by the Board of Directors of March Limited. The investment strategy is guided by the Committee of the Board of Directors, which also decides on specific strategic investment commitments. Historically, March’s experience has been focused on the pharmaceutical sector. Starting in the end of the nineties the Group has added participations in the financial services sector.
The Committee of the Board of Directors is supported by a management team based in Bermuda. March’s management team develops investment opportunities and implements the investment strategy. Key functions such as investment evaluation, transaction execution, treasury services, investment performance evaluation and risk management are handled in-house. A wholly-owned service company in Liechtenstein provides controlling services, including financial accounting and portfolio performance reporting.
