We are a Portuguese independent search fund.

Our goal is to match capital with valuable assets on a deal by deal investment strategy.

We believe that Portugal is an emerging market with significant potential, still presenting a reduced size of private equity, venture funds or alternative funds vs its GDP, compared to the main European economies (ie: -7x vs Spain).
Origem’s focus will be on SME Successions, Carve-Outs, Financial Stress Cases and Restructurings, where there are still interesting opportunities to create enormous value for all Stakeholders, for the Portuguese economy and for new investors.
Based on our individual track record our target returns ambition to overcome +4x net with +35% IRR.
