Argos Investment Managers rebrands as Quaero Capital

Related Topics

Geneva-based asset management company Argos Investment Managers SA is changing its name to Quaero Capital SA. 

The rebranding is driven by the firm’s continuing international expansion and a growing concern that its original name may lead to confusion with other businesses in the sector. 

Founded in 2005 in Geneva, QUAERO Capital is a specialist investment management boutique that offers a range of actively managed, high-conviction funds with a commitment to fundamental research and original thinking. ‘Quaero’ – the Latin word for ‘I research’ or ‘I seek’, is consistent with that commitment.

Quaero Capital is 100 per cent employee owned. Its founding partners, Cristofer Gelli (pictured)and Philip Best, were joined in 2011 by CEO Jean Keller and, in 2014, by Head of Development Thierry Callault.

Gelli says: "We are creating an environment where talented investment professionals work in a culture which promotes investment excellence. We believe that this is the key to delivering consistent and repeatable returns over the long term.”

Quaero Capital currently offers a range of 12 investment strategies, available through segregated mandates or through investment funds. These funds are incorporated into two umbrella SICAVs in Luxembourg (a UCITS Part I and a SIF). QUAERO Capital currently manages CHF600 million with a staff of 27 in 4 locations across Europe (Geneva, Zurich, Paris and London).
