Prominent South Australian businessman Ed Peter’s unlisted hospitality fund, Duxton Pubs, has floated the possibility of listing the company on the ASX in the second half of next year as it seeks $35 million from investors.

Mr Peter is the former head of Deutsche Asset Management in Asia and chairman of Duxton, an investment vehicle that oversees a portfolio of pubs, vineyards, farms and water rights. His companies have secured backing from prominent investors, including the billionaire Oatley family, hedge fund manager Richard Magides and Phil King’s Regal Partners.
