8a+ Investimenti SGR

8a+ Investimenti SGR is an Italian asset management company (SGR) founded in 2006 and based in Varese, Italy. It was established to identify investment opportunities for institutional and private clients and to channel savings into Italian small and medium-sized enterprises, providing capital that complements traditional bank credit financing.

The firm operates across public and private markets, with a product range that spans open-ended investment funds, sub-funds of a SICAV structure, and discretionary portfolio management services. Its private-markets activity is conducted through closed-end alternative investment funds, which invest in Italian SMEs across venture capital, real estate debt, credit, and securities. Direct venture investments in innovative businesses form part of this private-markets strategy, alongside adjacent credit and real estate debt mandates.

Stated areas of capability include asset and fund management, portfolio management, and responsible investing. The firm describes its approach as taking social, environmental, and governance (ESG) factors into account and as providing long-term support to portfolio companies, with a mission framed around creating value for investors, Italian businesses, and local communities.
