Clients
count on us.
Heptagon Capital is a private investment firm, run on partnership principles, founded in July 2005 by three senior former Morgan Stanley Executives; Tarek Mooro, Fredrik Plyhr and Eran Ben-Zour.
The core of our business is identifying truly exceptional boutique managers who focus on risk-adjusted returns rather than on a benchmark; who are below the radar in our regions and are not currently accessible to our investors.
We rely on our extensive and unique global network, our experience and our industry knowledge to source such talent. This translates into cutting-edge investment solutions.
Our vision is to deliver seamless access to the very best investment opportunities, advice, structuring, execution and client service available, across both traditional and alternative asset classes.
Through a balance of objectivity, innovation, high service and performance, we aim to bridge the gap between sophisticated investor demands and what is generally available in the market today.
We are driven by a rigorous team ethic; a culture of partnership and shared ideas. 37 experienced and highly motivated individuals from 16 different nationalities make Heptagon what it is today; a powerful mix of expertise and cultural diversity.

ESG
Heptagon Capital is an independent asset manager with a proven pedigree in long-term sustainable business management
We believe that sustainable investing can drive positive impacts for society and the environment, and hence we put an emphasis on transparency, with our active investment management culture built on ‘responsible investing’.
As such, we believe that environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors are also an important part of robust fundamental analysis, and that integrating them in the investment processes is paramount. Our responsible investing guidelines are based on this belief and on our firm’s commitment to provide the highest quality of active asset management, which defines both us and our clients.
