Who is our customer
Navegar I Parallel LP is FMO's investment vehicle parallel to the main fund Navegar I LP. Navegar I is sponsored by a reputable European hedge fund manager, Brummer & Partners (“Brummer”). Navegar will be Brummer’s second PE fund, the first one being Frontier Fund in Bangladesh, in which FMO has invested.
What is our funding objective?
Navegar is a sector-agnostic Philippines-focused private equity fund, a first mover in the country with a focus on small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Its key investment themes are domestic consumer and (services) export sectors.
Why do we fund this investment?
FMO believes that the opportunity to co-anchor a fund in a lower middle-income country, with a high potential for impact and with scarce availability of equity capital, makes this deal a good fit with FMO’s strategy.
