The Quilvest Group demonstrates a unique combination of family ownership and professional management.
Quilvest is a listed company providing full liquidity to its family shareholders. Despite this liquidity, however, Quilvest’s long-term performance has commanded 100% shareholder loyalty over the Group’s 90 years of investment activity.
Quilvest’s success is based on two key factors:
- The family shareholders have always taken a modern view of corporate governance. They decided over 20 years ago not to be involved in the management or investment decisions of the Group, but rather to be represented on the Board of Directors and to work with management to set the Group’s long-term strategic direction.
- The Group and all its divisions are managed by highly qualified professionals with significant international experience in their respective areas. The Group’s corporate governance stance has also commanded 100% loyalty from senior management, with no attrition except for retirement.
This combination of family tradition and stability coupled with world-class professionals is one of the Group’s most unusual attributes. The quality of the relationship between management and shareholders and the transparency of information-sharing are crucial to success.
Both Quilvest’s senior managers and investment professionals are highly motivated by this approach to corporate governance, and their interests are fully aligned with those of the Group’s shareholders and clients.
