Founded in 2001 by visionary entrepreneur Mario Cordoni, CFE Finance Group had a modest yet ambitious beginning, aiming to revolutionize the world of export financing by placing innovation and entrepreneurship at its core.

With the solid support of one of Italy’s most authoritative banking institutions, UBI Banca, CFE Finance Group has steadily grown over the years, evolving from a consulting firm to a successful manager of diversified investments.

In 2021, embarking on an investment journey that strengthened our roots in key sectors of the economy, a new exciting chapter unfolded. From the promising financial prospects of LFS Holding SA to the robustness of River Merchant Capital’s investments, and into the captivating universe of artificial intelligence with TechStar Srl, we have consistently broadened our horizons.

In 2023, we achieved a significant milestone with the acquisition of RiverRock European Capital Partners LLP, one of Europe’s most renowned investment firms, further solidifying our market position.

As an independent financial group, we passionately dedicate ourselves to actively seeking opportunities in the real economy and fostering entrepreneurial spirit.

Since its inception, CFE Finance Group has facilitated Trade Finance transactions exceeding 3.5 billion euros and increased net worth to 60 million euros. More recently, our group has structured over 25 bespoke securitization vehicles exclusively for asset managers, family offices, and banks, totaling over 1.5 billion euros.

Our philosophy drives us to be visionary, anticipating investments with the primary goal of preserving capital and promoting long-term sustainable growth.
