Lantana Capital

Lantana Capital

Lantana Capital was established in 2021 by George C. Zois and Colin Chapman in London. Zois previously led sales, trading, and investment activities for a Geneva-based family office after earlier stints at Goldman Sachs, PwC, Accenture, and EXOTIX Partners during the Greek debt crisis. Chapman joined from operational and fixed-income roles at BAML, Deutsche Bank, Sberbank, and a Swiss asset manager. The firm operates as a private investment office under the trading name of Amerro Asset Management LLP, authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority. The firm targets direct co-investments and SPVs in distressed and special situations. It covers bonds, loans, claims, and receivables with capabilities in origination, structuring, placement, and post-deal support. Asset classes include private credit, hedge funds, secondaries, and alternative assets. Geographic reach spans Europe, Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and South America. Confirmed mandates include advisory work on a solar panel factory in Greece and ownership of Willow House, a commercial property in Aldershot, United Kingdom. The team comprises seven named professionals with backgrounds in emerging-market debt, trade finance, and institutional sales. Additional offices are not disclosed. Lantana maintains an illiquid assets portfolio with global scope. No recent operational events from the last 24 months appear in public records. The firm lists contact details at Berkeley Square House in London and an email address for further inquiries. Lantana Capital differentiates through its hybrid structure as both a single-family office and a regulated special-situations advisor. This setup allows it to combine internal capital deployment with third-party mandates in debt recovery and capital markets. The model draws on long-standing relationships formed at EXOTIX Partners and Swiss asset managers rather than broad fundraising platforms.
