Here are some of the ways I know of.
In the UK you can place some investments in SIPPs or other pensions.
Depending on where you live and amount being invested, it may be worthwhile setting up a company so that CGT is reduced.
Some investments are in the shape of loans with additional payouts. The payouts can come in a number of forms. Sometimes as interest on loan (tax is due, but can be lower than CGT.) An investment I have with a fund listed on the Channel Islands Stock Exchange will pay out as individual projects in the fund are completed. That spreads the period over which the Capital Gains are realised and will hopefully reduce CGT I pay.
