Innovation
Transparency
Professionalism
CNL AIFM hails its heritage from CNL Advisors, founded in 2006. CNL Advisors provided investment and asset management consulting services in high-net worth individuals (HNI) and small institutional investors regarding the design, implementation and monitoring of asset portfolios.
CNL Advisors applied for an Alternative Investment Fund Manager (AIFM) license which was granted by the HCMC in 2018 (Ε.Κ.: 81/806/16-1-2018).
The creation of CNL CAPITAL, the main fund managed by CNL AIFM, came about as the result of CNL Advisors’ client demands for alternative financing. Managing alternative investment funds became our main activity.
The triptych innovation-transparency-professionalism characterizes CNL AIFM’s philosophy since its early days.
The launch of CNL CAPITAL succeeded in filling the SME financing void left by the departing banks; CNL CAPITAL adapted a heavily regulated financial instrument (the corporate bond) to resemble much more agile commercial paper, best suited to meet the SME needs for working capital.
The innovation DNA that CNL AIFM has inherited will continue producing cutting-edge, niche financial products for corporates, offering at the same time attractive yield for prospective investors.
“CNL AIFM will pursue its goal to produce innovative financial products for corporates which can deliver attractive returns for those who invest in them.”
Is the first Venture Capital Participation Company in Greece aiming to fulfil the funding needs of SMEs in terms of working capital and short-term liquidity.
The fund was founded in 2014 from an initial group of 25 investors, Greek entrepreneurs and executives who had foreseen the need for the creation of an alternative SME funding provider.
CNL CAPITAL meets the funding needs of SMEs that are growing and are financially healthy but at the same time cannot be fully services by the traditional banking sector.
