Source

Stallion-backed ACAP Stockbrokers has officially re-launched following a comprehensive five-month restructuring and recapitalization process aimed at funneling foreign capital into the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE). • Investment Breakdown: Total deployment approaches Rs. 400 Mn, comprising nearly Rs. 200 Mn for the acquisition and an additional Rs. 150–200 Mn to restore capital adequacy and regulatory compliance. • Foreign Inflow Targets: The firm targets US$ 100 Mn in equity inflows over the next 24 months. Focus markets include Switzerland, Austria, Japan, and Australia, leveraging long-standing relationships with high-net-worth investors. • Strategic Focus: Funds will be channeled into approximately 40 listed companies, specifically those with dollar and euro earnings. This strategy aims to leverage Sri Lanka's Rs. 8.5 Trillion market cap, where incremental inflows can significantly impact valuations. • Future Diversification: Beyond brokerage execution, the firm is in discussions with regulators to enter portfolio and wealth management. Stallion’s broader portfolio already includes interests in audio-visual systems, medical equipment, and bunkering. _Summary based on official company disclosures and re-launch data._
