Background

Athos Partners is an independent placement advisory firm dedicated to assisting leading mid-market private equity fund managers. Since 2011, the firm has raised 38 European private equity funds with a 100% success rate.

The firm has remained committed to its core strategy: advising exceptional growth, buyout and special situations managers with superior return profiles. The team has successfully advised both well-established and emerging managers and tailors its services to each client’s specific requirements.

With a team of sixteen, led by two experienced Partners who have been working together since 2008, Athos Partners has developed a highly differentiated and hands-on placement approach in which all team members participate in origination, execution and... distribution.
