Lyy-Invest
Lyy-Invest was established by the Lyytikäinen family, owners of the A-lehdet media group. The firm functions as a multi-family office that supplies investment management, wealth planning and governance services to several families. The office deploys capital into private equity, real estate, infrastructure and private credit. It executes through direct co-investments, SPVs, fund-of-funds commitments and secondaries. Confirmed activity spans buyouts, growth equity and late-stage venture. Positions reach Europe, North America, Asia and Africa. The team consists of family principals and external board members. Pekka Vähähyyppä served on the board until 2023. Petteri Karttunen joined in 2020 and remains chairman of the Saastamoinen Foundation. No additional offices are recorded. The structure keeps investment decisions inside the Lyytikäinen family circle while maintaining separate board oversight for certain holdings. This setup separates operating-company governance from the multi-family asset pool.
