What Acton Capital says it buys
Read from Acton Capital’s own website in August 2026. This is what the firm says it buys, not what anyone has recorded it buying, and figures are shown in the currency the firm itself used - nothing here is converted. Every line links to the page it was read from.

A stated mandate is a firm’s description of itself and was true of the page on the day it was read; firms widen and narrow what they will look at without updating the site. Acton Capital states that it takes majority or outright ownership. Nothing here is a commitment by Acton Capital to consider any particular business, and nothing on this page is represented as being for sale.
