EFE & ENE
Founded in 2003 by Alejandro Martínez Fuster and José María de Hevia, EFE & ENE opened in Valencia as a response to the fragmented wealth-management options available to Spanish business owners. The firm organizes itself as a multi-family office, offering investment management, corporate strategy, legal support, real-estate consulting, and tax optimization to clients who want their global assets managed under a single, disciplined framework. The portfolio spans private equity, private credit, real estate, hedge funds, infrastructure, and natural resources, with a geographic footprint concentrated in Europe. The firm pursues direct co-investments and SPVs alongside fund commitments, as reflected in vehicles like Gestión Boutique III Efe & Ene Momentum FI. A dedicated residential-property line, Hola Stays Portfolio, operates as a direct real-asset exposure in Valencia. Business-development strategy sits with Pablo Cotino, while Luis Tarabini-Castellani directs corporate finance — a structure that builds institutional capabilities inside a family-office wrapper. The firm maintains a professional-network affiliation with the European Financial Planning Association (EFPA), where Martínez holds the certified European Financial Advisor (EFA) designation. EFE & ENE departs from the gathering-assets model of a traditional wealth manager by housing investment, legal, tax, and real-estate advisory under one roof — a general-contractor architecture that lets clients coordinate global patrimony decisions through a single Valencia-based team.

Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at EFE & ENE?
Founding Partner Alejandro Martínez Fuster acts as Chief Investment Officer, setting the investment strategy and overseeing portfolio construction. The firm combines his CIO function with corporate-finance oversight from Director Luis Tarabini-Castellani, creating a two-layer governance model for direct and fund investments.
How does EFE & ENE source proprietary deal flow?
The firm's sourcing leans on the professional networks of its four named principals, particularly the corporate-finance relationships managed by Luis Tarabini-Castellani and the business-development pipeline led by Pablo Cotino. Because the office also provides legal and tax advisory to Spanish business owners, client transactions often surface proprietary co-investment and direct-deal opportunities.
Is EFE & ENE a single-family office or does it manage external capital?
EFE & ENE is structured as a multi-family office, serving several high-net-worth individuals, families, and businesses rather than a single patriarch or matriarch. It is not a regulated asset manager gathering third-party institutional capital; capital is provided by the client families it advises.
Does EFE & ENE participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
The firm operates a hybrid model. It commits to external funds — evident in vehicles like Gestión Boutique III Efe & Ene Momentum FI — and also pursues direct co-investments and SPVs, particularly in real estate and private equity. The Hola Stays Portfolio represents a wholly owned residential-property exposure in Valencia.
What is Hola Stays Portfolio and how does it fit into EFE & ENE's strategy?
Hola Stays Portfolio is a residential real-estate portfolio held as a direct asset in Valencia. It exemplifies the firm's approach to real-asset exposure: property that generates operating income while remaining directly controlled by the office, bypassing third-party fund structures for a portion of client real-estate allocation.
