Our Firm

Waru Capital was built from the ground up—literally—from Australia’s real-economy vantage point, then scaled into North America and beyond. Our name, “Waru” (fire), draws on First Nations knowledge where fire is used to ignite, purify, steward, and renew. For us, it’s not just a metaphor; it’s our operating system. We ignite inflection points with patient, flexible capital; purify what matters amid noise; steward cash flows and governance with discipline; and renew competitive moats as technology and industry curves shift.

We invest across Private Equity, Private Credit, Infrastructure, and Secondaries/Special Situations, starting with Australian on-the-ground insight and extending through global capital and operator networks. Our focus is clear: partner with ambitious teams bridging North America and Asia-Pacific, and compound value across cycles—where fire becomes order, and order compounds into durable growth.
