We are LDC
For over 40 years, LDC has been the trusted investment partner for ambitious management teams from all corners of the UK and in every sector. Part of Lloyds Banking Group, we offer strategic support, challenge when necessary and provide flexible growth capital as either minority or majority shareholders. The businesses we’ve supported have grown four times more than the national average since 2012 – increasing in total value by £7bn.
Being trusted by the management teams we back, to support them on their journey, is both a privilege we accept proudly and a responsibility we take seriously.”
