The asset manager who impacted the EV supply chain and set new sustainability standards worldwide

About A10

A10 Invest

Asset management branch of the A10 Group focused on private equity, with presence in Brazil, the US, and the Middle East. We are the global leader in asset management in the energetic transition sector, comprising upstream and midstream investments in the supply chain of electric vehicles, with assets under management (AUM) of circa US$ 1.0 billion (as of September, 2024) – majority part from the appreciation of our equity fund.

 

Through our investments, we enabled the first large-scale net zero carbon mining operation in the world.

We have a unique track record in the market: we align social-environmental concern with high investment returns. In one of our investees:

 

  • in the last 5 years, we multiplied the invested capital over 10 times

  • many social initiatives for the local communities were implemented, resulting in the exponential increase of employment and revenue in such communities

  • the company is considered in case studies in events such as the Conference of the Parties (COP), supreme governing body of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), every year since 2019

A10 Group

Co-founded in Sao Paulo in 2013 by partners with a background in asset management and international investment banking.
