Crescenta strengthens its offering with customized investment solutions for businesses

Crescenta, Spain’s first digital asset manager specializing in private equity funds, expands its product offering in response to the growing interest from high-net-worth corporate investors.

With more than 1,000 registered companies, the firm has designed a new program for launching SCRs with different strategies. The product, now available for investment, maintains Crescenta’s philosophy—access, selection, and quality—while incorporating an investment policy aligned with the specific needs of this segment.

Among Crescenta’s investors who have already channeled their investments through legal entities are insurance companies, foundations, family businesses, and family offices. They all share the goal of building long-term, multi-strategy, multi-manager investment plans, following models similar to those historically used by large U.S. endowments, international insurers, or major family offices.

“What these investors share is the desire to build private equity portfolios similar to those of the leaders in their categories, but adapted to their investment capacity. With this new offering, we are improving both the product available in the market and the investment experience for those clients who have participated in these vehicles through their private banking relationships,” said Ramiro Iglesias, CEO and co-founder of Crescenta.

Around 300 legal entities are already investing recurrently in Crescenta. The firm currently manages 12 ECRs and is now launching Crescenta Private Equity Strategic Selection SCR, with a minimum investment of €500,000, thereby responding to demand from private banking investors.

The strategy targets a net annual IRR of 15% and an estimated multiple of 1.8–2.3x on invested capital (MOIC)*, through a portfolio composed of five international buyout funds, both primary and secondary, across different geographies, complemented by exposure to growth strategies. The vehicle also includes thematic strategies and management styles tailored to the more sophisticated profile of this type of client.

However, the firm warns that it is important to note that returns are not guaranteed and that the investment carries risks, including illiquidity.

“With this launch, we aim to strengthen Crescenta’s positioning not only in the retail segment but also among professional investors. All of this is supported by product selection and structures tailored to each investor profile and a simplified process,” added Ramiro Iglesias.

On the other hand, the firm, which already exceeds €250 million in assets under management and has more than 4,000 clients, is preparing the launch of new products with the aim of continuing to consolidate its leadership in providing both individual and professional investors with access to private markets.

*The target is based on simulated historical net returns obtained by previous funds with the same strategy as the selected underlying funds managed by the same manager as the selected underlyings, under a conservative scenario. The reference period for the simulation covers the full duration of previous funds (excluding those still in their investment period at the time of analysis), in full twelve-month periods.
