LarraínVial

The firm operates as a multi-pillar financial group headquartered in Santiago, with a brokerage arm tracing back decades as a foundation. Today, it manages public and private market strategies for over 50,000 clients across 35 countries through its core divisions: Capital Markets, Fund Management, Wealth Management, Sales & Trading, and Corporate Finance. LarraínVial allocates across asset classes including hedge funds, private credit, and real estate, with $3.4 billion dedicated to alternative assets. The Capital Markets group sources regional opportunities for global institutional clients, while the Fund Management pillar structures domestic and international investment products. Wealth Management advises individual clients and family offices on cross-border allocations, leveraging Latin American market access. The firm employs over 900 professionals across offices in Chile, Peru, Colombia, Mexico, and the United States. It executes $22 billion in annual trade volume and holds an AMP-1 S&P fund management rating. The broker-dealer unit acts as a core execution and distribution engine across the region. LarraínVial's structure integrates a Chilean broker-dealer, fund manager, and wealth advisor under one roof—an architecture that allows it to serve institutional allocators, retail clients, and family offices simultaneously. This hybrid model makes it distinct from pure-play private capital firms in the region, with fee streams diversified across brokerage, asset management, and advisory.
