The Nimbus way
Nimbus is a hands-on investor. We know that active shareholder involvement can make the difference between success and failure of a company. So, when we invest in a business, our expertise and active engagement come along with the capital we invest. We provide solid financial backing and we act swiftly where speed is needed. Find out how we do it and why things work the Nimbus way.
The Nimbus way
This is why we call ourselves hands-on investors
Nine times out of ten, the companies we invest in have reached a stage where a new conduct of business is required in order to improve the business performance and achieve growth. A fresh and sound view on product development, methods and efficiency is often of value. Nimbus not only contributes capital, but also the experience, vision and inspiration needed to reach the next stage in the development of the company.
Why Nimbus
The reasons why people choose Nimbus as their partner
Involved
Nimbus has a practical attitude. Management teams can count on a lasting contribution to our shared goal: improving the company’s performance and value.
Swift
We are fast movers. The decision to restructure, refinance and revitalize a company must be taken quickly. Acting in weeks instead of months can make the difference.
Devoted
The Nimbus portfolio is relatively small. No Nimbus partner ever works on more than three projects at the same time. This way we can stay concentrated and devoted.
Prepared
Funded primarily by family offices, we invest like entrepreneurs and tailor to the circumstances. We are set up and prepared to increase our investment, if needed.

Adequate

Sustainable
Nimbus has an own Environmental, Social & Governance policy and Tax policy in place. The policies can be found in the permanent files section in the Investor Portal.
