Trigon Capital » About us

About us


Trigon Capital was founded in 1994 as Hansa Investments by investment banker Joakim Helenius. In 1999 the firm was renamed Trigon Capital, which is now a leading Central and Eastern European provider of investment and corporate advisory services. Our firm prides itself not only in the professionalism and creativity of our people but also in being an independent provider of top rated financial services.

We are not obligated to act in the interests of a wider group. Trigon Capital concentrates on serving the interests of our clients and business partners. We are aware that our future success is a function of client satisfaction and we strive to avoid or, where necessary, manage potential conflict of interest situations transparently. Trigon Capital has a strong balance sheet and has navigated the current economic crisis conservatively staying consistently profitable on an operating level (excluding non-monetary asset revaluation related items). Investments through our balance sheet are, almost without exception, conducted as co-investments into our own investment products, equally sharing the risks and rewards with our clients.
