THESE FIGURES INCLUDE OUR DIRECT INVESTMENTS AS WELL AS THE INVESTMENTS WE MAKE TO SUPPORT ENTREPRENEURS AND FUNDS SPECIALIZED IN SEED AND VENTURE CAPITAL.
At Finaccess Capital we carry out investments in the equity or wealth of a diversity of companies in several industries and regions with a long-term investment goal.
We are a growing company focused on acquiring businesses with a proven track record for operating well-known brands in attractive markets with potential for growth and an experienced management team.
As a result of our operational investments, the support we offer entrepreneurs through Finaccess Ventures, and our investments in specialized seed and venture capital funds, we are present in 57 countries on the 5 continents and in more than 480 companies in 12 different sectors.
Contribute to maximize the operations and potential of the companies in which we invest, and to strengthen their corporate governance practices.
Consolidating our current investments and on constantly searching for opportunities that offer great value-creating potential for our shareholders and co-investors.
At Finaccess Capital we employ a clear strategy backed by our main values: trust, prudence, responsibility, loyalty, and justice.
Particularly noteworthy in our portfolio are our investments in the Spanish company AmRest and in New Zealand’s Restaurant Brands—both of which allow us to continue to consolidate our position as a relevant player in the restaurant sector worldwide—and in Colonial SFL, through which we play a strong role in the real estate sector in Europe.
In 2015, we acquired a minority stake in AmRest Holdings SE, an independent multi-brand restaurant chain operator in Europe. Since then, we have increased our stake several times, and we currently hold more than 67% of the company.
Since we made our initial investment, AmRest has shown significant growth based on new restaurant openings and acquisitions. At the time we made the decision to invest in AmRest in 2015, the company operated 850 restaurants in 13 countries; it currently operates more than 2,100 restaurants in 22 countries. The portfolio consist of 10 brands in the fast food and casual dining categories, including KFC, Pizza Hut, Burger King, and Starbucks under the franchise model. In 2026, AmRest began operating the Taco Bell brand in Poland, also as a franchise. The portfolio also includes the proprietary brands La Tagliatella, Blue Frog, Bacoa, and Sushi Shop.
In early 2018, AmRest changed its registered office from Wroclaw, Poland, to Madrid, Spain. In November of that same year, AmRest began trading in euros in the Spanish stock exchange as a dual listing as it also continues to trade on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.
We actively participate in the AmRest Board of Directors with three directors who contribute to maintaining the company's strategic discipline and corporate governance. We also hold the position of honorary president. The other four directors are independent.
In April 2019, we acquired a 75% stake in Restaurant Brands New Zealand Limited through a partial takeover offer. With this, jointly with our co-investors, we gained effective control of the company.
In September 2020, Restaurant Brands finalized the acquisition of a YUM! franchisee in Southeastern California, which included 69 KFC and Taco Bell restaurants. This acquisition strengthened Restaurant Brands’ presence in the US.
In late 2025, Finaccess launched a Tender Offer for the totality of the Restaurant Brands stock it did not already own. Once the transaction closed, our share in the company grew to 100%. In early December, Restaurant Brands’ stock was delisted from the Australia and New Zealand stock exchanges.
Restaurant Brands has a long record of very good results and its portfolio includes 384 owned and 151 franchised restaurants of brands such as KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, and Carl’s Jr in New Zealand, Australia, and the US.
In 2016, we invested in Colonial, a leading company in the prime office building sector in Europe that is present in Madrid, Barcelona, and Paris.
Ever since, the company now known as Colonial SFL has underpinned its leadership in the prime office buildings market in Spain and France, increasing both its size and value. Noteworthy among its achievements are the merger with another company in the sector, Axiare Patrimonio, and the increase of its stake in Société Fonciére Lyonnaise (SFL), whose portfolio includes high-quality assets with prime locations in France.
In 2025, Colonial finalized a merger with SFL through a swap for the SFL shares which it did not already own, upping its stake to 100%.
Furthermore, Colonial SFL has a joint venture with Stoneshield Capital to develop a real estate platform focused on science and innovation. This is a strategic operation to complement its portfolio with high-growth sectors.
Colonial’s shares have been trading on the new Ibex ESG index since 2023, echoing the company’s commitment to sustainability and corporate governance.
In 2026, Colonial SFL announced its participation in the Berlin prime market through a strategic partnership with Generali Real Estate, one of the most important institutional real estate managers in Europe. As part of the agreement, Colonial SFL acquired a 51% stake in a company that owns two superprime real estate assets in the central business district in Berlin.
Through several transactions, at Finaccess Capital we have built our investment in Colonial SFL and we currently hold a stake of more than 13%, making us the third most relevant investor in the company. We hold two seats on the Board of Directors.
In 2022, we launched Finaccess Ventures, a company through which we support entrepreneurs whose values are aligned to ours. We carry out a very selective process to assess projects in different sectors and geographies.
We also offer our support through investments in specialized seed and venture capital funds that invest in Mexico and around the world in both private and publicly-listed companies. This allows us to be present in a wide range of companies and sectors, particularly in technology, fintech, health, and e-commerce.
