Anthony Dalwood
The Architect
Structured and legacy-driven; builds the systems and institutions that last.
Anthony Dalwood presents as a classic Architect, methodically constructing Gresham House from a 12 million pound shell into a multi-strategy alternative investment platform. Throughout the interview, Dalwood articulates a deliberate, systems-level logic: identifying structural gaps in pension fund allocations, assembling complementary asset class verticals including forestry, infrastructure, housing, and new energy, and engineering stakeholder alignment through a listed vehicle that converts clients into shareholders. His language is consistently structural, referencing building blocks, platforms, and pooling mechanisms. He frames ESG and illiquidity premiums not as trends to chase but as durable forces to build around. Dalwood's early rugby metaphor, one eye, one arm, one ambition, reflects the same focused construction mindset he has applied across his entire career.
“The intention and the vision was to turn it into an asset management business. Alternative asset allocation is growing, investors increasingly want to be aligned with their fund managers, and there was an increasing amount of co-investment demand.”
“We package that all up into what we call the British Strategic Investment Fund, aiming at housing, social housing, affordable housing, but typically sub 50 million, where we might actually build platforms.”
“Never stop reading. Always remember you don't know everything. Do listen, but have courage in your convictions that are rational.”
