Why we are here

Why we are here

Long term partnerships creating long term prosperity
…because good things take time.

“We exist to make money for clients so performance matters more than growing our investor base.”

Mike Taylor
Founder & CIO


Mike Taylor founded Pie Funds with the simple philosophy of outperforming the markets by investing in growth companies.

Having purchased his first shares at the age of 18, Mike went on to grow his own personal portfolio and then that of friends and family. Mike worked in a number of financial roles both here and in the UK.

Believing many funds were serial underperformers, he launched Pie Funds in 2007. Fast forward to today, Pie’s goal is still to focus on achieving above-average investor returns through active management, and to provide investors with outstanding client service.



Passion for Performance

Passion for Performance

We care deeply about achieving the results our clients demand and deserve. And we work tirelessly for better. Managing actively, with discipline and diversity of thought.

Collaborating to be more than the sum of our parts and celebrating our successes. Never relying on the market or resting on our laurels. But constantly striving to outperform everyone’s expectations. Especially our own.


In it together

In it together

We put our clients and our people first. We’re invested in you – and alongside you. Building lasting relationships and getting to know people personally.

Treating you as partnerships, not transactions. Earning trust through transparency and integrity. Curating a diverse, supportive, and positive culture, where we can all be ourselves and be at our best. Driven to go above and beyond for each other and for our clients.


Embrace innovation

Embrace innovation

We strive to stay a step ahead. That means always thinking outside the square. Nimble, adaptable, and open-minded. Never restricted by the status quo. Being both bold and humble. 

Backing ourselves while always willing to learn and flex and change. Bringing blue sky thinking that’s always backed by rigour and discipline. A truly global team, with personal connections in every place.


Why invest with Pie?

We're for the more invested. 

Because we're more invested, too.
