Dear Readers,
Welcome to the June 2022
edition of the Funding Strategies newsletter!
It is
that time of year where we tidy up our accounts and look forward to the new
financial year.
We have
seen some tremendous changes globally affecting businesses in the last 6
months including large increases in energy and other input costs, staff
shortages, supply chain issues and the loss of confidence from a generally
falling stockmarket (ASX 200 down about 12% for the year-to-date) and
uncertainty around other asset classes.
Our clients (and investors) are generally looking for growth companies. With interest rates rising we are seeing more attractive yielding investments, eg. property funds, and we continue to see high growth companies looking for assistance. Some growth trends are very apparent with airports and planes filled to capacity with eager travellers driving tourism and hotel bookings. IBIS World have put a list together of Global Fastest Growing Industries in 2022 and travel related businesses fill the top 5 spots.
On the
pages below we explore our own high growth opportunities from innovative
supply chain and business models to leveraged software companies growing
their market share.
