LF Investment expands into full-spectrum lifestyle investing

LF Investment CI

South Korea’s LF Investment (LFI) is positioning itself as a comprehensive lifestyle investment platform just three years after its establishment.

According to the company’s parent firm, LF Corp., on Sunday, LFI achieved an annual return on investment of 80 percent last year, driven by successful listings and exits of portfolio companies including beauty brand Aromatica and edtech firm ALUX.

Building on this momentum, the company plans to expand its investment portfolio this year with a focus on content and entertainment, as well as beauty and healthcare. It is also preparing to launch new funds by recruiting industry specialists and forming dedicated teams.

LFI aims to leverage its parent LF’s business capabilities to pursue equity investments and mergers and acquisitions of promising beauty and lifestyle companies at home and overseas.
