AURELIUS

AURELIUS traces its origins to the establishment of its first entity in 2005. It has since developed into a global alternative investment group focused on private equity, private debt and real estate, with more than 400 professionals across 10 offices and over 300 completed transactions.

The firm invests in small and mid-sized companies through strategies including corporate carve-outs, platform build-ups, succession solutions and bespoke financing. Its main sector focus is Technology & Business Services, Industrial & Chemicals, and Lifestyle & Consumer Goods.

AURELIUS is particularly differentiated by its operational model: its WaterRise operations advisory team supports portfolio companies with transformation work across areas such as finance, procurement, IT, sales, human resources and strategy. Its latest mid-market fund, AURELIUS Opportunities V, closed at €830 million in June 2025.
