Moto Capital Group

Moto Capital Group

Moto Capital Group Inc. was founded in Miami in 2014 with capital traceable to the investment management industry. The firm operates from the Wells Fargo Center under a multi-strategy mandate that spans equities, fixed income, real estate, and private credit, and it maintains SEC and NFA registrations. Identified team members include Gustavo Yazeji, Jansen Moura, Marcos Paulo Lima, Sueli Roberts, and Paulo Gitz. Moto’s activity is concentrated in public and private credit, hedge fund allocations, and direct real estate. In 2023 the office stepped into a US$275 million bridge loan to Brazilian telecom Oi S.A., co-lending alongside Ashmore, PIMCO, DoubleLine, Marathon Asset Management, Solus Alternative, and Vontobel, among others. The transaction highlights Moto’s willingness to commit to large-cap distressed situations in Latin America alongside institutional managers. The firm’s confirmed geographic footprint covers North and South America, and it also lists ESG as a technology-screening lens. The headcount is not publicly disclosed, but LinkedIn records show several named associates and prior conference attendance by Trader Paulo Gitz at TRADERFORUM LATAM in 2017. The office runs lean, with no disclosed satellite locations or adjacent philanthropic vehicles. In 2023, the firm’s participation in the Oi S.A. co-lender syndicate marked the most recent observable event, confirming continued appetite for cross-border special-situations credit. Moto’s structural distinction is its hybrid posture: a single-family office that behaves like a co-investor in institutional-sized credit restructurings while maintaining an SEC-registered status. That pairing — private-family permanence with regulator-grade compliance — lets it enter syndicate tables alongside the likes of PIMCO and DoubleLine without operating as a fund manager or accepting outside capital.
