Confidas Capital Advisors
Confidas Capital Advisors was created in 2004 as a platform
for alternative investments. Since inception, it has completed over US$ 2.6 billion of co-investments in direct transactions and funds.
Leveraging its long track record of advising investors in many different
asset classes, the platform developed a specialization in co-investments
in U.S. commercial real estate (“CRE”) equity and debt.
U.S. Real Estate middle market debt investment thesis
Highly fragmented market with unique opportunities due to regulation
Background
Post 2008 financial crisis: traditional banks moved away from middle-market commercial real estate lending due to regulatory constraints.
Private debt space sees tremendous growth.
C.R.E
Properties used specifically for business or income-generating purposes.
The main classes of commercial real estate include: multi-family rentals; for–sale residential (condos); industrial; office and healthcare facilities.

Co-invest minimum of 10% of each loan
originated (“skin in the game”).

Small and mid-size borrowers seek alternative financing solutions.
Growth of independent private lenders in a fragmented market.
