About us
Noronha TRUST
Founded in April 2024 and inspired by the island of Fernando de Noronha, Brazil, Noronha TRUST is a company authorized by CVM and ANBIMA to carry out the activities of administration, management and distribution of Investments Funds in Brazil (FIPs).
The founding partners have together more than 20 years of experience in structuring, administering and managing FIPs, with the last 5 years spent working together.
As minority shareholders of Paraty Capital, they contributed to the firm reaching the top 3 in the ANBIMA ranking as independent FIP administrators, with approximately R$40 billion in AuA and 150 funds.
Operating not only in traditional Venture Capital and Private Equity strategies, but the partners are also pioneers in the structuring, administration and management of FIPs in the Search Funds and CVC's varieties in Brazil.
We also support our clients in the constitution and administration of offshore vehicles, with suitable providers for each type of structure.
Our investors base is composed of both foreign capital - global asset managers and development banks - and local capital - investment funds, wealth managers and family offices.
Our mission
Our mission is making PE & VC investments less complex by helping managers manage their investment structures more productively.
While we dislike bureaucratic processes, we believe that acting within the regulation of capital markets is the way to provide security, reliability, transparency and governance for Private Equity and Venture Capital investors. There are many requirements and rules that make structuring and maintaining structured investment funds and vehicles a burden that is often heavy to carry, especially for managers who need to focus their time and energy on their investors and invested companies.
We created Noronha TRUST to be the trusted partner for PE & VC managers, whether investing locally or abroad, with the mission of helping to deal with bureaucratic issues, providing infrastructure and operational support, to free up time for what is most important: investing in excellent companies, innovations and the future. We believe in investing in technology to make operations more productive.
We believe in people, their experiences and expertise, and in relationships based on trust and long-term partnerships with our clients.
