We can't change the direction of the wind,

but we can adjust our sails to always reach our destinations.

We engage only in friendly transactions and work with talented management teams to achieve positive results.

 

Our investment approach is characterized by flexibility. We are adaptable, adjusting our investment horizon depending on the needs of the acquired company. Without exit time maturity constraints, we have managed to build a formidable track record of returns. 

 

According to the opportunity, we pursue different types of investments: direct, co-investments, majority stakes, or minority but with strong governance.
