Bienville Capital

What is Bienville Capital?

Bienville Capital is a family office headquartered in New York, United States, which combines asset management and advisory services to offer a distinctive approach towards investing. With a vision that the world needs great ideas rather than just another investment firm, they emphasize creativity and divergent thinking as the basis for their investment philosophy.

They challenge assumptions, explore opportunities worldwide, and employ a wide-reaching network to find competitive advantages. Bienville manages global, opportunistic strategies, and invests in public markets, where they allocate capital to top-performing specialist investors. In private markets, they support visionary entrepreneurs, venture capital, and private equity funds from seed stage through IPO.

Moreover, they incubate Vertical SaaS companies through a partnership with Fractal. They also back talented specialist managers, as seen in their partnership with Colter Van Domelen to create the Informatic strategy, focusing on emerging market-leading technology companies.

Bienville's advisory services extend to entrepreneurs and family offices, who benefit from their platform's vast resources. Collaboration and co-creation of ideas are core to their approach, with an investor relations team characterized as diverse, open-minded, resourceful, and informed.

More than 20% of AUM is internal capital invested alongside their clients, showcasing their commitment to alignment with investors' interests. Founded in 2008, Bienville boasts a team that includes co-founders, a Chief Investment Officer, portfolio managers, strategists, principals, analysts, and support staff dedicated to operations, financial management, and client services.

Bienville's significant assets under management highlight their position as a significant player in the investment landscape, seeking to lead and innovate rather than follow the traditional paths of the financial industry.
