Frequently asked questions

Who runs investment decisions at Essling Capital?

The firm splits investment leadership across two distinct pillars. Bertrand Fesneau and Rémi Matuchansky co-head the Lead Investment practice, which makes direct buyout and growth equity commitments. Arnaud Lipkowicz heads the Co-Investment practice, sourcing and underwriting deals alongside external general partners. President and CEO Domnin de Kerdaniel oversees the platform, while Chairman Filippo Monteleone provides strategic and sector guidance, particularly in healthcare.

How does Essling Capital source proprietary deal flow?

The senior team's collective decades at KKR, CVC, 3i, and GCM Grosvenor create a network of general partner relationships that feeds the co-investment pipeline. For direct Lead deals, the partners lean on their own origination histories in French and European mid-market and large-cap buyouts. De Kerdaniel's tenure as President of CVC France gives the firm a direct line into French sponsor-led processes.

Is Essling Capital's deal flow concentrated in France, or does it invest across Europe?

The firm states it deploys capital in France, across Europe, and internationally. The investment team's prior experience spans French mid-market buyouts and pan-European large-cap deals, while the Co-Investment head ran a London-based EMEA mandate at GCM Grosvenor. Healthcare, a core sector, follows Monteleone's pan-European experience at Ramsay Générale de Santé.
