Investment Strategy
Opera co-invests with specialist Independent Sponsors, primarily in the UK, Netherlands, DACH and Nordic regions.
We partner with Managers with the goal to back the very best small-cap European companies that are hard to find and hard to access.
Strategies backed by Opera include successions, carve-outs and buy-and-builds, where Opera’s role ranges from sole investor to member of a broader consortium.
Opera’s investors include US and European institutions, including foundations, pensions and family offices.
