What Gestron Asset Management does

Gestron Asset Management S.A. is a Luxembourg-based Alternative Investment Fund Manager (AIFM) authorized and regulated by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF), operating since 2016 under the legal framework of the Luxembourg Law of 12 July 2013. The firm manages approximately $2.8 billion in assets under management across seven differentiated strategies: Private Equity (its flagship, with $1.5B committed capital across four funds since 2016 and 50+ co-investments in services, technology, healthcare, and industrials), Capital Markets (encompassing equities, credit, and flexible multi-asset strategies), Venture Capital (operated through a partnership with Brighteye VC focused on early-stage edtech), Real Estate, Healthcare, Agribusiness, and a Long-Only Fund investing in listed European companies. The platform employs 25+ professionals and is headquartered at 5 rue Jean Monnet, Luxembourg, with investment activities spanning the US and European markets.

The firm operates a relationship-driven, direct institutional sales model targeting institutional investors, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals. Revenue is generated primarily through asset management fees and performance fees (carried interest) on its alternative investment funds; specific pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated fund-by-fund. A key differentiator is the 85% internal capital commitment on its private equity platform, signaling strong principal alignment with external LPs. Gestron is connected to the Latsis Family Interests group of companies, with John Latsis serving as Chairman of the Board, which provides family-office heritage and embedded access to private capital pools in Europe and the Middle East.

The leadership team combines Wall Street and European institutional pedigree: Konstantinos Tsiveriotis (Managing Director, ex-CEO of a Luxembourg private bank, 30+ years global markets), Sanjoy Sankaran (CIO Private Equity, ex-Hermes GPE), Stéphane Lellis (CIO Capital Markets, ex-investment banking and hedge funds), David Barrett (CFO, ex-EFG Bank Group since company inception), and Alex Spiro Latsis (CIO Venture Capital). The firm is structured as a private limited company (RCS B205927, LEI 254900FT6VM7L1OKQN52) and is SFDR-compliant under EU Regulation 2019/2088. No proprietary technology, AI capabilities, mobile applications, or APIs are disclosed; technology infrastructure is described in institutional-quality, non-proprietary terms.
