OUR APPROACH

Cordiant is an industry-focused investor offering sophisticated institutional and family office clients access to targeted private debt, private equity and alternative strategies.

Capitalising on deep industry knowledge and a wide-ranging international presence, Cordiant seeks to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns by originating, structuring and investing in opportunities in asset rich sectors such as Telecoms Infrastructure, Agriculture, Transportation Infrastructure and Energy/Materials Infrastructure. We invest across Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa, and have a strong historic focus on the “uncrowded trade” in attractive emerging market geographies.

Cordiant marries two decades of experience in successful fund management with deep sector expertise. Our origination teams are staffed by acknowledged industry experts who leverage their keen understanding of the characteristics of the most successful business models and management teams in a given sector to engage meaningfully with potential investees. The structuring group, adept at developing tailored capital solutions, ensures that opportunities meet the rigorous standards set by our demanding investment team (who focus on excellence in structure and due diligence). Through the interplay of these seasoned groups, Cordiant seeks to provide investors with access to high quality transactions through funds and managed accounts, as well as co-investment opportunities and sidecar vehicles.

Through active engagement with investee companies and partnerships with leading international financial institutions, Cordiant aims to leverage credit and structural enhancements wherever possible.

Telecoms Infrastructure: Led by the former President of American Tower (AMT:NYSE), our telecommunications infrastructure franchise focuses on providing growth capital to companies building the shared infrastructure critical to the current- and next- generation Internet. Our Telecoms Team origination group is based out of Montreal, London, Dublin and Boston.

Agriculture: Led by a team with longstanding expertise and contacts in global agricultural commodities and logistics, our Sao Paulo office focuses on originating and structuring investments in substantial farming enterprises. We have developed a particular focus on pre-export finance in Latin America. This practice brings a focus on sustainability and seeking to ensure that investee companies comply with environmental laws and practices.

OUR VISION

At Cordiant, we believe that our success depends on the success of our clients. By making growth capital investments in upper mid-market businesses in sectors we understand deeply and global markets where we can deploy historic experience, we seek to provide our investors with prudent portfolio diversification and above average risk-adjusted returns. Cordiant’s focus on industry expertise and bespoke capital solutions is designed to allow investee companies to fulfill their growth potential.
