# Cerralvo Capital

Fifty companies across a dozen countries.

A search fund investor founded by a former searcher who was twice a chief executive, describing itself in its own page title as an active search fund investor. Its portfolio page publishes 50 companies with a name, a one-line description, a country and the chief executive for each, seven of them marked exited. The spread is genuinely global, covering Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Peru, Paraguay, Spain, Italy, Germany, Poland, Israel, India and the United States.

## At a Glance

The strongest published case on this shelf for a searcher outside the United States, and the weakest published case for knowing what the deal would look like, since the page describing its model is missing from its own site.

## What It Costs

Investment terms, not fees, and none are published: no check size, no stake, no fee. An investor portal behind its site confirms an externally funded vehicle rather than personal capital.

## Best For

A searcher outside the United States, particularly in Latin America or southern Europe, who wants a backer whose published book is already international rather than one making an exception.

## Pros and Cons

- Pro: Fifty portfolio companies published with country and chief executive named, which is a checkable record rather than a count
- Pro: Genuinely international across three continents, which is rare on a shelf where most firms publish a United States address and nothing else
- Pro: Founded and run by someone who searched and then ran two companies, so the operating experience is first-hand
- Con: No address published on any page, including contact and privacy
- Con: The page that would carry its investing model, linked from the footer of every page and from a home-page button, returns a 404 and is absent from its own sitemap
- Con: Publishes nothing about the stage it funds, its terms, or what a searcher must bring, so the relationship has to be established by asking

## What Searchers Say

Named on the backer rosters of several independent searchers. Its internship program is a summer placement for MBA students and is not a salaried search program; its conditions apply to interns rather than to searchers.
