Compass Group just launched its first Brazilian local credit fund, managed by the local team from its Sao Paulo’s office, part of an integrated 50-strong investment professionals team across Latin America and the US.
Compass Group opened the Brazil office in 2018 and has been actively growing the local team whilst working on obtaining the local license to manage funds, granted in December of last year
As one of the largest asset managers in LatAm, with over USD 6b in AUM, Compass Group is bringing its regional credit expertise to the local market. This will be the first fund managed locally and the company has a strong pipeline planned for 2020. It will include other credit funds, domestic equity funds as well as feeder funds into offshore funds from global managers.
Compass Group has been investing in credit in Brazil for more than 20 years and this new experience sets a great and exciting challenge for the company
