The company's investment philosophy involves partnering with portfolio companies to actively build world-class companies. They focus on investing in either Indian or Asian companies seeking to expand into global markets or US or European companies with an India or Asia centric offshore-based model. Basil has a hands-on approach to investing, acquiring significant stakes and being involved as an active operating partner in each of the portfolio companies to drive strategy, growth, and exits. Since 2008, Basil has invested in and actively operated around 14 technology investments, with 6 successful exits, mostly within 3-5 years of investment. In August 2018, Basil completed a successful third-party fundraising round from international limited partners to recapitalize and consolidate their position as an investor in several leading-edge niche technology companies.
