About the Fund

Lince Growth Fund I is a closed-ended FCR vehicle designed for non-EU investors seeking Portuguese residency through the Golden Visa program. The fund targets small-to-mid-cap industrial and circular-economy businesses, deploying €1.5 m–€5 m tickets via equity, hybrids and secured debt to balance upside potential with downside protection. Leveraging Lince Capital's 30+ years of experience and Omnium Advisory's deal-sourcing network, the strategy emphasizes operational improvements, export growth and ESG integration. Investors benefit from a 3 % one-off setup fee, 2 % p.a. management fee, and 20 % carry above a 5 % IRR hurdle. Units carry a 7-year maturity, with distributions from year 3 and a secondary-market exit option thereafter. The fund aims for a 15–20 % annualized return, fully aligning with residency requirements.
