Taler
Mari Emmanouilides established Taler after prior roles at Chase Manhattan and Merrill Lynch. Gustavo Sandoval participated as founding partner and now manages Global Daler SA in Switzerland. The firm joined ANBIMA in 2008. Taler deploys client capital through fund-of-funds, hedge funds, private credit and real estate mandates. Positions target South America with exposure noted in Brazil and cross-border vehicles such as Taler Focus Fund in the Netherlands. Galapagos Capital integration in 2023 expanded the wealth platform while retaining direct advisory to families. The firm maintains professional ties to FPSB and IBCPF. No additional offices or headcount figures appear in public records. The 2023 acquisition by Galapagos Capital constitutes the sole dated operational event from the last 24 months. Taler operates under Galapagos Capital ownership while preserving separate client mandates and governance structures for each family relationship.
