Fondo Gomma Plastica
Fondo Gomma Plastica was founded in 1998 to deliver supplementary retirement benefits to employees in the rubber, plastic and electrical cable sectors. Massimo Guerranti serves as president and Luca Ruggeri has acted as director general since 2020. The fund operates under Italian occupational pension rules and belongs to Assofondipensione and Mefop. The fund deploys capital across buyout, growth, secondaries and co-investment strategies. It participates in three Italian pension consortia: Progetto Iride for private equity via Neuberger Berman, Progetto Zefiro for private credit via StepStone, and Progetto Vesta for infrastructure via Eurizon Capital Real Asset SGR. Confirmed public holdings include positions in Snam, UniCredit, Nexi and FinecoBank. Geographic exposure centers on Italy and the broader European Union. Assets under management stand at $1.997 billion. The fund maintains nine service providers, among them BFF Bank as custodian and Prometeia as financial advisor. In November 2024 it spoke at Salone SRI in Milan on ESG integration. It holds membership in two Italian pension networks and works with Anima Sgr on an SME equity mandate. The fund's structure relies on joint-venture vehicles with peer Italian pension funds rather than direct deal execution. This consortium model determines allocation size and manager selection while preserving the statutory separation between the pension scheme and its investment platforms.
