CapMan, a Nordic private assets management and investment company, agreed to acquire Dasos Capital, an investment advisor to private equity funds investing in sustainable forests and natural capital for €35m. “We are inspired to join forces with such a well-established and prestigious private assets house as CapMan. Partnering with CapMan allows leveraging synergies between the companies and strengthening the focus on Dasos’ value creation and investment activity. Forests and all natural ecosystems are globally under pressure resulting from population growth and massively increased economic well-being. For the coming decades, we need to move on with investing into and re-building our natural capital. The demand for sustainable wood as well as for forest-based nature and carbon sequestration services is expected to increase substantially in the foreseeable future. Combining CapMan’s deeply rooted private asset experience with Dasos’ expertise will form an excellent instrument to address the widening investment opportunities in the context of forest-based natural capital,” Olli Haltia, Dasos Capital CEO and Senior Partner.
