How we work

Strategies for better portfolio performance

The alternative strategies we manage, which correlate less with traditional capital markets, focus on optimising the ratio of return to risk.

Active management and engagement

We’re professional investors and our involvement in portfolio companies’ activities and active management of other investments creates value for big global players in less familiar markets.

Responsible investment

We assess the risks and opportunities related to environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in the analysis and oversight of our investments. We believe this approach brings long-term benefits.

Regions

Baltic countries and Emerging Europe

We operate and invest in the Baltic countries and emerging Europe. This is the region where we can create the most value, as we have over 30 years of experience and expertise and a network of partners here.

For most economic indicators, this region is the most advanced in the developing world. These countries have high growth rates and attractive asset prices along with a level of development and corporate governance standards that are almost comparable to Western Europe.

The Baltic countries stand out for their prudent management of public finances, their competitive and open growth model, and Scandinavian influence on their business culture.

Given the relatively small size of the region, the Baltic countries and emerging Europe get less attention from large investors than other emerging markets, which opens up more opportunities for us as professionals in the region.

Strategies

Private equity

In the business for more than 30 years now, the Invalda INVL group has solid experience managing private equity assets and building market players that are leaders in their respective fields in the Baltic countries and Central and Eastern Europe.

In collaboration with foreign private equity funds and local entrepreneurs, we have completed several dozen acquisitions, company sales and capital-raising transactions with a total value of over €2 billion.

With one of the most experienced private equity teams in the region, we successfully manage products that vary in size as well as in the investee companies’ region and type of operations. Most capital is invested in the Baltics, but there are also some investments outside the region.

We invest in private equity because we believe we create value not only by earning an attractive return for our investors, but also by contributing to economic growth in the region and the welfare of all of society.
