Bhanu Choudhrie: A journey from unpaid jobs to director of a private equity firm

Bhanu Choudhrie, director of London-headquartered private equity firm C&C Alpha Group, is well-known for making successful investments in the areas of healthcare, utilities, property, and agriculture globally. C&C Alpha Group has been able to tap markets in the US, Indian and South East Asian markets. Although the young entrepreneur belongs to a financially secure family, he had humble beginnings like most of us and has done unpaid jobs like serving as his father’s valet.
“I worked during my university days in the library, which was unpaid. I also worked with my father as a boy in the garage maintaining his vintage cars. I am still waiting for the pay cheque for that one!” stated Bhanu Choudhrie telling about his first job.

As a business, C&C Alpha Group wishes to invest in the successful enterprises around the globe. The equity firm looks for lucrative and carefully analyzed markets for investments. For instance property investment Megalith Capital Management, which is a New-York Based business, has been a lucrative investment for the firm.

Bhanu Choudhrie has been able to taste multiple successes, irrespective of the tough competition in the investment market. C&C Alpha Group niche markets in aviation and utilities in UAE have bought good capital returns, which were based on long-term investment. Showing a positive attitude towards the future he also stated, “I am particularly excited about the growth trajectory of Alpha Aviation, our pilot training business, which is working with major airlines in the Middle East and South East Asia.”

Talking about his smartest investment, Bhanu Choudhrie said, “I have enjoyed particular success in the US where I am a director of Customers Bank in Pennsylvania and the Atlantic Coast Financial Corporation in Florida. I made the investments because I could see an opportunity in the way American banking was changing. Customers, for instance, is aimed at millennials – we are pioneers of cutting-edge virtual banking.”

An investment I made into Villa Azur Restaurant in Miami has also been a great personal success as the place has become so popular and enjoyed longevity in an ultra-competitive market place.”
