Redgate Capital – New Asset Management and Financial Advisory Company Launched<\/strong><\/p>\n

Redgate Capital is a new asset management and boutique investment banking company established with a clear focus on Baltic, Russian and CIS countries\u2019 investments.<\/p>\n

Redgate Capital brings forth a vision of a new financial services company based on the experience of its team and co-operation partners. The company offers asset management services with a focus on Russian, CIS and Baltic countries to Baltic, Scandinavian and Western European investors, as well as financial advisory services to mainly Baltic clients.<\/p>\n

The founders of Redgate Capital are Veikko Maripuu \u2013 who boasts 16 years of experience in banking, capital markets, and asset management for the investment bank Suprema (later Evli Securities), and was the partner and Head of Asset Management; and Mart Altvee \u2013 who has 15 years of experience in management and banking, and the former Head of SEB Estonia. Aare Tammem\u00e4e, who will join the team, has 16 years of banking, real estate, and financial management experience and has worked for the Port of Tallinn, Nordea corporate finance and was the CEO of Arco Vara real estate company.<\/p>\n

Introducing Redgate Capital, Mr Mart Altvee commented, \u201eThe economic slow-down in Estonia and the Baltics and the crisis on global financial markets is spreading to the real economy. For companies operating in the Baltic economic environment the coming years are critical, yet offering good opportunities for securing future growth in the case of rational behaviour.\u201c<\/p>\n

Redgate Capital is looking to focus on three core areas \u2013 portfolio and fund management services, alternative investment services and financial advisory services to private and institutional investors in the Baltics, Scandinavia and Western Europe.<\/p>\n

Asset Management and Fund Management: Redgate Asset Management<\/strong><\/p>\n

Redgate Asset Management offers traditional asset management and fund management services. The activities of Redgate Asset Management are licensed by the Estonian Financial Supervision Authority. According to Mr Veikko Maripuu, \u201eDue to the global financial crisis, value of all assets but also solid cash rich enterprises and quality assets in the region that we know best \u2013 thanks to our former experience in Russia, other CIS countries and the Baltics \u2013 have decreased dramatically as a result. Our goal is to implement a focused investment strategy, experience, and contacts to find assets with the best potential and value and invest in them long term, taking maximum advantage of the distressed market situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The main activities of Redgate Asset Management are fund and portfolio management. The first investment funds will be launched together with Redgate\u2019s Luxembourg partners next year.<\/p>\n

Alternative Investments<\/strong><\/p>\n

The other area of Redgate\u2019s activity is alternative investments. In 2009 the company plans to introduce a distressed investment-type real estate and private equity funds. \u201eTiming of the funds is very important for us,\u201d says Mr Altvee, \u201cReal estate and other assets prices are currently decreasing and will drop more. Companies need changes and additional financing in order to survive. This offers investment opportunities in real estate as well as private equity products. We’ll be going out to the markets in the first or second half of next year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Financial Advisory<\/strong><\/p>\n

The third area of expertise of Redgate Capital is financial advisory, concentrating on corporate finance (M&A) and capital raising transactions for corporate clients and entrepreneurs in the Baltic region. Mr Aare Tammem\u00e4e comments that \u201eThe main obstacle to many businesses and investments is the lack of finance. In today\u2019s context it could be a question of survival. Companies need financial solutions and financing and the\u00a0bank credit crunch has created a demand for alternative sources of financing,\u201c adding that \u201ccompanies are now ready to offer investors new financial instruments like bonds and preferred\u00a0 stocks. In the coming years we will see growing industry consolidation where stronger companies and competitors merge and smaller or highly leveraged companies disappear or are taken over. There is growing number of business, but we will concentrate on the deals that we know we have the capacity and experience and can deliver results on. At the same time, due to the current downbeat environment of investment banks, we are also well placed to attract additional top professionals to the Redgate Capital team.\u201d<\/p>\n

The headquarters of Redgate Capital is situated in Tallinn, Estonia. At the moment strategic co-operation agreements are being formed with partners in Luxembourg, Scandinavia, Poland, and Lithuania. So far, Redgate has 12 professionals working for the company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
