Background

About Shane Oconnor

At the Australian Business Growth Fund we invest growth capital to help Australian businesses achieve their aspirations, helping employment and increasing trade both domestically & internationally. My job as BDM is to help valued ANZ clients, bankers & my networks navigate through the investment process hand in hand with the ABGF team. ANZ has provided this unique opportunity to work with the ABGF to assist with clients growth ambitions. The ABGF is a public and private partnership between the federal government and the major Banks to meet the funding gap in the SME market. The Fund is investing patient capital into businesses with $2m-$100m turnover, and deal sizes between $5m-$15m for minority interests that allows business owners and founders to retain control of what they’ve built. The Fund is not just capital, it's providing the support to corporatise and to help our customers expand and sell their innovations and solutions to our Australian and overseas markets. An experienced Banker with over 18 years in Financial Services covering all segments from Institutional, Corporate & Business Banking with an ongoing focus on customer relationships. Working domestically and internationally across London, Singapore and Vanuatu has given me a passion to help business owners achieve their growth ambitions and helping them to structure appropriate financing solutions to make those ambitions a reality.
