Expanding Alternative Investment Opportunities
Luxembourg-based Antwort Capital, a feeder platform for qualified investors specializing in providing access to top-tier private market funds, has achieved a significant milestone by obtaining its Alternative Investment Fund Manager (AIFM) license in July 2024. The license granted by the Luxembourg’s financial regulator, the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF), marks a new chapter in the company’s growth and enhances its ability to serve qualified private investors and wealth managers across Europe.
Commitment to Excellence
Antwort Capital has built a strong reputation for its rigorous investment selection process and commitment to investors’ best interests in partnership with very reputable General Partners that open their investor’s base to private individuals and wealth managers through Antwort’s vehicles. The company specializes in providing access to private equity and real estate funds in Europe and North America, with a focus on mid-market opportunities.
San Salvador added:
“Our new AIFM status reinforces our commitment to excellence and transparency in the alternative investment space. It allows us to further align our services with the evolving needs of our investors, particularly in an environment where private markets continue offering attractive opportunities for portfolio diversification and potential outperformance. We work in partnership with General Partners to make sure that our feeders are efficient compared with the master funds’ results. The General Partner of our Feeders has to be comfortable with our value proposition.”
Expanding Capabilities
The AIFM license allows Antwort Capital to broaden its range of services and strengthen its position in the alternative investment sector. With this new status, the company can now manage and market alternative investment funds directly, offering greater flexibility and control over its investment strategies.
Manuel San Salvador, Founder and Managing Partner of Antwort Capital, commented on this achievement: “Securing the AIFM license is a testament to our team’s experience and dedication. It represents a significant step forward in our mission to simplify access to high-quality alternative investments for private investors and wealth managers. This license will enable us to enhance our offerings and provide even more tailored solutions to our investors.”

The company remains focused on providing access to promising private market opportunities, leveraging its expertise to identify and secure investments in well-managed companies with clear strategies and competitive advantages.
San Salvador concluded:
“As we enter this new phase, we are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead. Our AIFM license not only strengthens our operational framework but also opens doors to new investment strategies and partnerships. We look forward to continuing our growth trajectory and delivering value to our investors in this dynamic market environment.”
