Paradice Investment Management Pty Ltd was founded in 1999 by David Paradice and is headquartered in Sydney, Australia, with additional offices in Denver and Melbourne. The firm operates through a unified global platform of dedicated investment teams that manage more than AUD 18 billion in assets across Australian and global equity portfolios. As of June 2025, Paradice oversees about USD 1.4 billion in global and international equities. Its independent, owner-operated model fosters a strong culture of accountability and alignment with investor interests.
Paradice specializes in active equity strategies across Australian and global markets, covering small-cap, mid-cap and large-cap Australian equities as well as global small-cap, global ex-200 and global alpha strategies. The firm manages capital for institutions, superannuation funds, family offices and high-net-worth investors, aiming for superior risk-adjusted returns over the medium to long term. Dedicated teams focus on specific market segments without sector constraints, applying in-depth fundamental research and a generalist stock selection process driven by value analysis. The firm maintains limited capacity in its strategies to preserve performance discipline and flexibility in portfolio construction.
Environmental, Social, and Governance criteria play a central role in investment decisions, with in-house tools deployed to assess climate risks and engagement activities with portfolio companies on sustainability practices. The firm avoids significant exposure to thermal coal and has been recognized as a carbon-neutral operation. Paradice has taken direct stakes in clean energy infrastructure, notably serving as a cornerstone investor in a pumped hydro project in Queensland, and examines opportunities in solar, wind and battery storage technologies to support the transition to a lower-carbon energy system.
