About us

UCG Investments is a leading private equity firm specialising in real asset investments in Latin America.

We invest alongside our investors in businesses underpinned by ownership of real, tangible assets, for which we have developed unparalleled investment expertise and access to deal flow. 

We aim to create long term shareholder value by building businesses with outstanding growth potential, while striving to offer liquidity to investors within a shortened timeframe.

We take a focused approach to investing, currently managing a portfolio of companies which we established in our core areas of expertise, namely agriculture, energy, forestry, infrastructure, minerals, oil & gas, and real estate.

We also invest opportunistically across asset classes via our two Latin American Funds (Special Situations and Private Equity)
