Azimut Global Team: An Unwavering presence in world markets

Our Global Team model

Over time, Azimut has developed a unique "global team" model, leveraging its presence in key global markets and emerging/frontier markets with significant growth potential. Our teams consist of highly diverse and skilled Portfolio Managers who complement each other with their diverse experiences, expertise, and management styles. Crucially, these teams comprise local professionals who possess an in-depth understanding of their respective local markets.

Throughout the years, our strong presence in major global financial markets has enabled us to establish a valuable network and form partnerships with a wide range of companies, spanning various sectors and fields of expertise. This distinctive characteristic provides us with a substantial competitive edge, allowing us to identify and capitalize on opportunities that traditional market players may not even consider.

All of these elements form the essence of the Azimut Global Team ecosystem

Valuable solutions for investors and companies

All Private Markets asset classes

Private Market solutions present a unique opportunity to invest in the real economy while supporting the growth and development of businesses.

These Private Markets funds offer return and value creation opportunities for savers, granting them access to financial products previously exclusive to institutional and professional investors. Such investments contribute to the growth of targeted companies, creating growth opportunities for them and generating returns for the savers who invested through various investment funds.

The Azimut Group stands as one of Europe's pioneers in democratizing this asset class. We firmly believe that Private Markets financial instruments play a crucial role in generating value when effectively allocating assets.

Our ultimate goal is to become a global benchmark in Private Markets investments. While we have already established ourselves as the leading alternative fund provider in Italy in terms of assets and offerings, our aspirations reach far beyond.

Since 2019, we have been successfully operating in the US, the most significant marketplace for Private Markets, forging valuable partnerships with leading operators across all alternative asset classes. Our vision involves further expansion into other continents and key markets that offer optimal opportunities for this type of investment offering.

Research and Development in Digital Assets

Crypto assets, blockchain technology, and decentralized finance are areas where Azimut has achieved significant progress. Through strategic investments in innovative projects, we now embrace new and exciting scenarios in asset management

This technology offers rewarding experiences in terms of both liquidity and investment opportunities.

Thanks to the tokenization process enabled by blockchain technology, investments that were traditionally illiquid, such as those in private markets, can now achieve immediate transferability.

Azimut and tokenisation

In this regard, the Group has focused on exploring new ways of applying this technology in the field of financial instruments. From this, two significant projects have emerged:

The launch of AZIM, the first security token issued in partnership with Sygnum Bank ("Sygnum"), the world's first digital asset bank. AZIM is a financial instrument that digitally represents a portfolio of loans to Italian small and medium-sized enterprises.

The launch of a token with an underlying portfolio of loans to Italian SMEs. On the Allfunds platform, we have successfully launched the first tokenization of a closed-end fund, making it possible to trade the fund's units, now converted into digital tokens, before its expiry

The advantages of using tokens are significant:

Disintermediation resulting in lower costs and barriers to entry for users
Speed of transactions that can be automated through simplified processes
Transparency of transactions that are permanently recorded and verified by other users on the network
Democratisation of investments allowing more inclusive access for retail investors
Fractional ownership which allows for the exchange of parts of an asset
