AnaCap Financial Partners ('AnaCap') is a private equity firm advising funds that invest in Software, Technology and Services within the European financial ecosystem.

History

AnaCap was founded in 2005.[1] The firm launched its debut fund in 2006, when it raised €300 million and has since raised €2.7 billion across 4 private equity funds and various co-investment vehicles. AnaCap’s funds have attracted a global investor base including institutions such as Goldman Sachs and Allianz.[2][3]

The firm’s strategy is to invest in Software, Technology and Services within the European financial ecosystem. AnaCap focuses on supporting founders, entrepreuners and managers in the European lower mid-market.

In 2022, Anacap carved out of the credit business into an independent advisory firm called Veld Capital.[4]

Leadership

Since January 2023, AnaCap has been led by group executive chairman Joe Giannamore and co-managing partners Nassim Cherchali and Tassilo Arnold.[5][6]

In May 2022, AnaCap, together with US investment banks City and Goldman Sachs, invested $250 million into Jobandtalent, the Madrid based temporary job platform.[7][8]

In June 2022, AnaCap acquired the Spanish developer of niche health insurance products and services Further Underwriting International for $56 million.[9][10]

In July 2022, AnaCap invested in pfs, a Spanish provider of software and technological risk lifecycle management services.[11][12] In November 2021, AnaCap bought a majority stake in fintus, a German software as a service low-code banking platform.[13][14]
