Spinoza Capital, founded by Oscar Pesch, is an independent boutique based in the Netherlands focusing on institutional fund placement and advisory services. Our main focus lies in raising institutional capital for private market funds across a spectrum of sectors, including private equity, private debt, real estate, commodities, infrastructure, impact, and non-correlated assets.
What sets our approach apart is the unwavering commitment to accompany each manager we represent with a substantial personal investment in each fund we raise. Core experience and expertise at Spinoza Capital include primary fund placement, advisory services, and customized solutions that extend across diverse strategies and European regions.
With a distinguished career that spans over 25 years, Oscar has collaborated closely with general partners and investment teams, playing a crucial role in positioning and scaling institutional investment management businesses. His expertise has contributed successfully in effectively securing over $2 billion for over 20 uniquely distinctive alternative investment funds and offerings.
Acknowledged as an authentic leader and entrepreneurial collaborator, Oscar consistently bring valuable insights to every undertaking.
With extensive connections within the institutional investor community in Europe and two decades of experience, Oscar's commitment lies in delivering substantial value to clients and their investors.
His network spans a broad spectrum of institutional investors, including asset managers, banks, consultants, corporate venturing programs, endowment plans, family offices, foundations, government grants & programs, hedge funds, private equity & venture capital funds, real estate funds, insurers, investment banks, pension funds, private banks, sovereign wealth funds, wealth managers, accelerators & incubators, and seed investors.
We enter into exclusive partnerships with a limited number of specialized private markets and alternative investment managers for their European distribution strategy.
Demonstrating a hands-on commitment to both funds and investors, we consistently make personal investments in every manager we represent. This commitment encompasses financial dedication, personal engagement, shared values, a long-term perspective, strategic involvement, passion, conviction, and a willingness to share risks.
We prioritize one or two mandates at a time to ensure dedicated focus, driving each process with rigor and consistency. Based in the Netherlands, Spinoza Capital Advisors operates across Europe.
In the last decade, Oscar, in his role at XS Investments, a placement boutique he co-founded in 2007, played a key role in fundraising for various investment managers, funds and mandates. Noteworthy collaborations during this period include general partners and investment teams, such as Investment Manager Selection (IMS), 747 Capital, Climate Fund Managers, GQG Partners, Incofin Investment Management, TrueBridge Capital, Forbion Capital Partners, BioGeneration, Twelve Capital, Horizon21, Macquarie, Rothschild, and SVG Capital.
