Verdi Capital

What Verdi Capital does

Verdi Capital s.r.o. is a Czech private investment group founded in 2011 in Prague, operating as a multi-fund platform focused on alternative assets in agriculture, renewable energy, and global hedge fund strategies. Through its regulated Verdi SICAV vehicle the firm holds direct ownership of approximately 7,800 hectares of Czech farmland across at least seven portfolio companies (including Druhá Poběžovická, Agrospol Starý Pelhřimov, and Agrowild Nová Ves), as well as biogas plants exceeding 4 MW of combined capacity. Its renewable energy arm, Green Horizon Renewables (GHR), co-invested in and developed 220 MW of wind capacity in Finland that was subsequently sold to BlackRock, providing a marquee exit.

The group's product suite comprises Verdi fond farem (Verdi Agro Fund), the first Czech fund offering qualified investors direct exposure to domestic agricultural production with a CZK 1,000,000 minimum ticket, 5-year horizon, and 10% expected annual return; Verdi Apex Fund, a fund-of-funds providing access to global hedge fund strategies with credit overlays; and One Family Office, an advisory platform co-established in 2023 with Czech/Slovak law firm Havel & Partners that manages CZK 8.5 billion+ across offices in Prague, Brno, Bratislava, Dubai, London, and Frankfurt. The firm holds a Czech investment brokerage license that enables direct distribution of financial products to qualified investors.

Commercially, Verdi earns management and performance fees on AUM and fund commitments, with 15 completed transactions since 2011 and a pipeline of CZK 3 billion in planned investments. Distribution is field-sales-led: minimum investment thresholds and advisor-led channels target HNW individuals and institutional investors, while One Family Office serves as the primary partner-driven distribution layer. Headcount is small (1–10 employees), reflecting a lean operating model that relies on regulated fund structures and outsourced professional advisors rather than large internal teams.

Others

• Havel & Partners: Co-founder of One Family Office alongside Verdi; not a competitor for fund capital but an ecosystem partner sharing advisors and clients, and a useful proxy for the institutional anchors of Verdi's distribution.

Direct peers

• Jet Investment: Czech/Slovak private equity firm investing in mid-market companies, including exposure to agricultural and industrial assets — directly comparable Central European PE / fund manager model to Verdi.
• Amista investiční společnost: Czech SICAV / fund management firm running qualified-investor funds in real assets — comparable vehicle structure to Verdi SICAV and similar regulatory/operating model.
• Redside: Prague-based independent investment management firm running qualified-investor and alternative asset funds for Czech HNW — overlapping distribution, regulation and product set with Verdi.
• AVANT (Česká spořitelna group): Czech fund-of-funds / investment platform distributing alternative and qualified-investor funds, structurally similar to Verdi's multi-fund platform serving HNW and qualified investors.

Broad incumbents
