VINCI PARTNERS COMPLETES COMBINATION WITH COMPASS

 

Transaction creates the Gateway to Alternative Asset Management in Latin America, with US$52 billion in assets under management

 

Rio de Janeiro, October 29, 2024 -- Vinci Partners Investments Ltd. (NASDAQ: VINP) ("Vinci Partners,” "we," "us," or "our"), the controlling company of a leading alternative investment platform in Brazil, announced today that it has completed its previously announced combination with Compass (“Transaction”), a leading asset manager and investment advisory firm in Latin America.

 

The Transaction creates a full-service Latin American alternative asset manager, that as of June 2024, had more than US$52 billion in assets under management across Private Markets, Investment Products and Solutions, Public Equities and Corporate Advisory segments.

 

“We are thrilled to announce this groundbreaking combination with Compass, which marks a transformative new chapter for our organization,” said Alessandro Horta, Chief Executive Officer of Vinci Partners. “The combination with Compass allows us to expand our focus beyond Brazil and into the broader Latin American market, a region we believe is one of the most compelling globally for future growth with the increasing penetration of alternative investments.

 

Together, we are poised to enhance our service offering to clients through our position as a comprehensive full-service player, equipped to serve local and international clients across the entire product spectrum. With tailored investment strategies that address local, regional and global dynamics, we believe we are exceptionally well positioned to capture the significant opportunities in Latin America and emerge as the leading player in the region.”

 

“We are excited about the future and the opportunities that lie ahead with our integration into Vinci’s platform. We have been working on the integration process with the Vinci team since the signing back in March 2024, and were already able to act on several of the opportunities identified. We will continue to work together to further capitalize on those as one combined entity,” said Jaime Martí, Chief Executive Officer of Compass. “As time passed from the Transaction announcement, it became even more clear that the cultural alignment and shared long-term vision between our teams are key drivers to ensure the success of this partnership as we move forward together.”

 

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC acted as financial advisor to Vinci, with Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP as transaction legal counsel and Carey Abogados as Latin American legal counsel. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC acted as financial advisor to Compass, with Skadden, Arps Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP as transaction legal counsel.
