The independent financial group GVC Gaesco, through GVC Gaesco Alternative Investments, SGEIC, has launched Zamit II, a new investment vehicle that expands its international alternative investment platform. The objective of this new fund is to consolidate €60 million in assets under management, a target for which it already has a strong level of investor commitment.
Zamit II will invest in Spanish SMEs with balanced financial foundations and proven business models, with EBITDA ranging between €2 and €5 million. The fund will support companies with growth and transformation potential, working alongside their management teams in processes of professionalization and expansion. To this end, the management team at GVC Gaesco Alternative Investments, GVC Gaesco’s alternative investment manager, will select companies across various sectors with sustained capacity for long-term value creation.
The new vehicle continues the strategy initiated by GVC Gaesco in 2020 with Zamit I. The experience accumulated through its management has consolidated a flexible investment model closely connected to Spain’s business fabric, which is now being broadened with Zamit II. In addition, the new fund renews the support of business families who participated in its predecessor vehicle. These families, clients of GVC Gaesco’s Private Banking, stand out for their experience in managing family businesses and share the values of such companies, contributing not only capital but also expertise and a close understanding of the reality of SMEs in which investments are made.
“Zamit II continues an investment strategy that was born out of demand from our business families, who consider direct investment in companies essential to complement their wealth strategy. Our role is to provide a professional approach: selecting opportunities, analyzing companies, and executing capital entry,” explained Paco Illueca, Managing Director of GVC Gaesco Alternative Investments. “Beyond financial resources, our added value lies in supporting management teams and professionalizing project management. The participation of business families reinforces this model, bringing their experience and knowledge in value creation,” he added.
Creand Wealth Management will partner with GVC Gaesco in the distribution of Zamit II, sharing a common vision on the importance of driving growth and professionalization in Spanish SMEs.
Zamit I, which reached €22 million in assets under management and is currently in the divestment process, has led investments in companies such as European Flyers, Saigu Cosmetics, Okticket, and Vacway, contributing to their expansion and consolidation.
The recent authorization granted by the CNMV allows GVC Gaesco Alternative Investments, SGEIC, to manage investment vehicles in Luxembourg, expanding its operational capacity and international reach. Under this authorization, the manager will also assume responsibility for the funds integrated into Zamit Capital RAIF-SICAV. Currently, GVC Gaesco Alternative Investments manages €330 million and has set a strategic target of reaching €500 million in assets under management. With this new stage, GVC Gaesco strengthens its role as a key partner in driving alternative investments in Spain.
