Our history - the Bennelong story
Bennelong Funds Management is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bennelong Group, a privately owned funds management and private equity business.
Founded by businessman Jeff Chapman in 2000, the Group has grown to encompass a number of thriving subsidiaries under the Bennelong umbrella.
With a solid track record across the Group, strong capital base, disciplined management and extensive industry experience, Bennelong has established a successful presence in both the funds management and private equity markets including:
- Crown Golf: owner and operator of more than 30 golf courses in the UK;
- Sportsbrand Media Group: which produces and distributes international sports content and programming for television and digital media broadcast internationally; and
- Crown Content: publisher of the prestigious Business Who's Who and Margaret Gee's Media Guide.
Bennelong's core values - honesty, competitiveness, teamwork, prudence, balance, respect, accountability and hard work - underpin all initiatives undertaken by the Group, and the funds management subsidiary is no exception.
While the Bennelong Group owns and manages significant businesses globally, it also measures its success through contributing to positive and lasting change in the wider community via the Bennelong Foundation.
