Oquendo Capital

Oquendo Capital specializes in delivering customized financial solutions for mid-market enterprises across the Iberian Peninsula and France. Their strategic approach focuses on supporting companies during critical business phases including acquisitions, expansion initiatives, and shareholder restructuring. With a versatile investment methodology, Oquendo crafts bespoke debt and equity packages designed to meet the specific needs of financial sponsors, family-owned enterprises, and management teams seeking capital partners who understand regional market dynamics.

Since its establishment in 2007, Oquendo has built an impressive investment track record, deploying over €800 million across 62 portfolio companies. Their investment range typically falls between €5 million and €30 million per transaction, allowing them to address the financing requirements of mid-sized businesses that often fall outside the focus of larger institutional investors. This strategic positioning in the middle market has enabled Oquendo to develop specialized expertise in identifying and nurturing growth opportunities within their target regions.

Operating as an independent firm under management control gives Oquendo significant flexibility in its investment approach and decision-making processes. This autonomy allows the firm to move efficiently when evaluating opportunities and structuring deals that align with both their investment criteria and the needs of their portfolio companies. With dual headquarters in Madrid and Paris, Oquendo maintains a strong local presence in its core markets, facilitating deeper relationships with business owners, advisors, and the broader financial community across Southern Europe.

Oquendo's investment philosophy centers on providing patient, growth-oriented capital to companies with proven business models and strong market positions. Their team brings extensive experience in corporate finance, private equity, and operational management, enabling them to serve as valuable strategic partners beyond mere capital provision. This comprehensive approach to investment has established Oquendo as a respected financial partner for ambitious mid-market companies seeking to navigate transitions, accelerate growth initiatives, or optimize their capital structures while maintaining their operational independence and entrepreneurial culture.
