Stated investment criteria

What Columna Capital says it buys

Read from Columna Capital’s own website in August 2026. This is what the firm says it buys, not what anyone has recorded it buying, and figures are shown in the currency the firm itself used - nothing here is converted. Every line links to the page it was read from.

A stated mandate is a firm’s description of itself and was true of the page on the day it was read; firms widen and narrow what they will look at without updating the site. Columna Capital states that it takes majority or outright ownership. Nothing here is a commitment by Columna Capital to consider any particular business, and nothing on this page is represented as being for sale.

SEC filings

What Columna Capital has raised

From this firm's own Form D filings. A fund files one within fifteen days of its first sale, under penalty of perjury, which makes these the hardest numbers on the page.

Vehicles filed3
Total capital raised$65m
Largest single vehicle$29m
Filing history2016 to 2021
Smallest accepted commitment$110k
Filed fromLUXEMBOURG

Form D covers US-domiciled vehicles raised from accredited investors. It will not capture a fund raised outside the United States, separately managed accounts, or capital deployed off balance sheet, so treat these as a floor rather than a total.

Regulatory record

How Columna Capital is registered

An exempt reporting adviser is not required to report regulatory assets under management, so the blank above means the question was not asked rather than that the answer is unknown. Where a figure exists it is the gross asset value of the private funds the firm advises, which is a different and usually larger measure.
