MATCHING CAPITAL TO STRATEGY

We work across the full range of debt instruments: term loans, working capital facilities, asset-backed
finance, infrastructure funding, private placements and debt capital markets, guiding management through
the options and putting in place the solution that fits the business best.

WHY ‘BETULA’

Betula is the Latin name for the birch tree. It was a deliberate choice. Birch trees thrive where others struggle, in poor soils, harsh climates, and conditions that stop less adaptable species in their tracks. They establish quickly, grow fast, and put down roots that last.

We work in markets that are complex, cross-border and often underserved. We back businesses that are building something real, and we work alongside them through the hard parts, not just the easy ones. The birch doesn’t stand out for its size. It stands out for its resilience, its reach, and its ability to take root where others won’t.
