Contango Capital Partners (CCQ) was established in May 2007 to invest in the rapidly growing financial services sector in Australia and Asia.

The global financial crisis has materially affected the outlook for financial services companies.

Against this background the Company has decided to pursue a more targeted approach to its business strategy and will focus on bolt-on acquisitions to benefit its investment in Contango Asset Management Ltd - the Company's core unlisted financial services asset.

CCQ owns a 49.99% interest in Contango Asset Management Limited (CAML).  CAML manages large, small and microcap Australian equity portfolios for superannuation funds, wealth managers and other institutional investors. CAML's investment style is designed to deliver superior performance through the business cycle.

CCQ listed assets are invested in niche investment managers, financial planners and larger highly liquid listed Australian financial securities.
