Innovation, specialist skills, the ability to intercept changes in advance and to build teams of highly qualified professionals: these are the key elements that the Founder and CEO has leveraged. “By combining everyone’s experience and skills, the path to reach the goal can acquire an even greater value and go far beyond what was initially hoped for”, Lorenzo Vangelisti said in the interview, pointing out that this is the objective that Valeur Group has been trying to achieve since its establishment.

Lorenzo Vangelisti: innovation and social commitment at Valeur Group
During the interview, CEO Lorenzo Vangelisti also addressed the importance of technology and innovation, both of which stimulated the growth of Valeur Group. These elements led to the launching of Valeur Digital Platform in 2021: the platform combines innovation and long-term expertise to overcome industry challenges and make investing fast, easy, and cost-effective, thus saving time, reducing operational risks, and scaling up distribution across multiple channels. In the same year, to further strengthen its positioning and its investment solutions offerings, the Group also acquired LinkedTrade Technologies Ltd., a SaaS multi-dealer platform that digitally connects the buy-side and the sell-side and offers end-to-end automation for the conception, pricing, trading, and risk monitoring of bespoke structured products. Based in London, it operates to make structured products available to all investors with a high level of transparency. The interview was also the occasion to explore how Valeur Group is committed to social causes through Valeur Foundation, the non-profit organization founded on the initiative of Lorenzo Vangelisti to support humanitarian initiatives, cultural projects, sport associations, and animals’ welfare. In this regard, the Group subscribed to the Wildlife Conservation Bond, the financial instrument issued by the World Bank to defend black rhinos and local communities in two natural reserves in South Africa, namely the Addo Elephant National Park and the Great Fish River Nature Reserve.
