Our Funds

Rixon Capital manages two private credit strategies focused on offering institutional, non-dilutionary debt solutions to the underbanked Australian SME sector.

Rixon Capital fund strategies are underpinned by two key tenets:

  • A focus on capital preservation
  • Delivering investors a leading risk-adjusted return via a scarcity premium vs a risk premium


We deliver targeted returns through prescriptive lending strategies, aligning each private credit fund strategy with a specific risk profile.
