What Mauá Capital does

Mauá Capital, operating commercially as JiveMauá, is a privately-held Brazilian alternative-investment manager formed through the 2024 merger of Jive Investments and Mauá Capital. The firm manages R$ 25.5 billion in assets across more than 325 investors and operates a multi-vehicle fund architecture spanning four verticals: distressed and special situations, real estate, private credit/infrastructure/agri-business, and pension (previdência). Its product lineup includes four distressed vintages (Distressed I-IV), seven listed real-estate funds (MCCI11, MCRE11, MCCE11, MCLG11, MCLCSR, MCCL, MPFA11), open-ended private credit vehicles (BossaNova 90 and 360), a BossaNovaSec series for general and qualified investors, listed infrastructure (JMBI11), the JMAG agribusiness fund launched in April 2026 with a R$ 500 million target, and pension strategies (Soul Prev 45, Soul Prev 177, Pulse Opportuna Prev).

The firm monetizes through management fees on AUM and performance fees on closed-end and listed FII-like structures, structured to comply with CVM investor classification tiers (Investidor Geral, Qualificado, Profissional). Distribution is primarily direct-to-investor via the jivemaua.com.br platform with subscription-led onboarding, supplemented by B3-listed FIIs for retail liquidity, and uses LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, and email for content-led investor engagement. The underlying technology is a standard investment-management platform without disclosed proprietary tooling, and the firm holds ANBIMA certification and PRI signatory status to support regulatory credibility and ESG positioning. Strategically, JiveMauá positions itself as a 20+-year pioneer in Brazilian distressed investing, now extending that alternative-asset capability into adjacent verticals via its diversified, multi-fund platform.
