Arbor Group are investors and operators, backing Australian entrepreneurs across the whole life of a company: operational finance and advisory, capital, and permanent ownership.

We back businesses for the long climb, compounding value patiently rather than chasing the quick exit.
The businesses come first. We are the root system beneath them, not the story out front.
Plain language, honest numbers, and advice a founder can act on. No jargon, no theatre.

Explore Arbor Permanent Owners →Our name
Arbor is the Latin name for a tree known for the strength, support and shelter it offers, an interconnecting lattice of vines reaching through its canopy.
We think of ourselves the same way. Arbor Group is the root system: the strength, support and value beneath a network of businesses, founders and stakeholders. Quietly holding it all up, so the things growing above us can reach further than they could alone.
