What Amiral Gestion does

Amiral Gestion is an independent, employee-owned French asset management company founded in 2003 and headquartered in Paris, with a secondary office in Madrid. The firm is fully employee-owned with no external shareholders, is authorized by the AMF under GP-04000038, and employs 56 staff including 23 analyst-fund managers. Its core product is the SICAV Sextant umbrella, which contains 11 sub-funds spanning European and international equities (Sextant PEA, Sextant PME, Sextant Climate Transition Europe, Sextant Entrepreneurs Europe, Sextant Quality Focus, Sextant Tech, Sextant Asia Ex Japan), fixed income (Sextant Optimal Income, Sextant Regatta 2031, Sextant Credit Opportunities), and diversified strategies (Sextant Grand Large). The investment process is a proprietary fundamental value approach that combines quantitative and qualitative, financial and non-financial (ESG) analysis, with ESG engagement since 2012 and SRI fund management since 2015.

The firm generates revenue primarily through recurring management fees on approximately €4 billion of assets under management, complemented by bespoke wealth management mandates for high-net-worth individuals and families operating through securities accounts, PEA/PEA-PME wrappers, and dedicated open-end funds. Since 2023, Amiral Gestion has extended into private markets via Amiral Climate Solutions, an unlisted infrastructure debt strategy that provides bridge financing to renewable energy and climate transition developers, adding a differentiated fee stream beyond traditional AUM-based management fees. Distribution runs through three channels: a direct sales force in Paris and Madrid serving institutional investors and HNW clients, partnerships with independent wealth management advisors (CGPs) across France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Luxembourg, and Switzerland, and thought-leadership content (investment letters, quarterly reviews, L'Aparté publications) supported by industry media and event participation.

The business is staffed by a stable executive committee led by CEO Nicolas Komilikis, Chairman and Co-CIO Louis d'Arvieu, and Fund Manager and Co-CIO Raphaël Moreau, alongside Deputy CEO and CCO Monia Donnen, Head of Responsible Investment Véronique Le Heup, and a wealth management team including David Poulet, Romain Goldenberg de Landrian, and Sabine Diaz. Recent strategic activity has focused on product breadth (Amiral Climate Solutions launch, Sextant 2027 merger into Sextant Regatta 2031), team expansion in fixed income, and proprietary capital deployment via a SEK 323 million cornerstone commitment to the ARENIT Industrie SE Nasdaq First North listing in early 2026.
