BG Egypt

BG Egypt

At BG we describe ourselves as "a world leader in natural gas". Asked for attributes which apply to our way of doing business, we choose words such as confidence, closeness, agility and creativity in finding solutions and making things happen.

Confidence and agility are most certainly required of the brave members of the London School of Business team that has undertaken the gruelling challenge of climbing Mt. Everest. And closeness, teamwork and commitment must be the hallmarks of a successful climb. BG Egypt salutes the courage and determination of the team and we applaud its international make-up and wealth of talent. A big part of our corporate philosophy is to help individuals acquire skills to realize their full potential. We believe in helping the team to realize its dream.

Aston Lloyd & Partners

Ashton Lloyd Partners

Aston Lloyd & Partners is a city based global real estate Investment Company specialising in the emerging markets. We source and develop opportunities that have the ability to deliver generous returns for both the seasoned and novice investor.

Aston Lloyd offers opportunities that suit the twin objectives of real estate, which has always been regarded as a long term investment as well as a vehicle for capitalising returns in the midterm.

Aston clients generally buy with a view to selling the property when it is completed to the end-user market, making a substantial return in the process. However some decide to make use of the villa themselves. We offer clients the chance to make the same kind of profits that a developer would make.

Our fully integrated approach enables us to identify opportunities globally, capitalise on their potential and offer investors higher returns. We do not operate show rooms, and we do not operate a meet and greet service prior to making a purchase. This is one way we gain a cost advantage on our competitors that we pass on to the client, making Aston Lloyd one of the more serious contenders in this arena.
