European Capital Partners Luxembourg Completes Purchase of Eurinvest Partners

European Capital Partners (Luxembourg) SA (ECP), an independent Luxembourg-based Super Management Company, has announced the completion of its acquisition of Eurinvest Partners SA's business, effective Friday 19 September 2025, following all required regulatory approvals in August 2025.

According to ECP (which is 51.5% Luxembourgish), this transaction materially strengthens its Belgian wealth management franchise serving high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) and families. It brings the total assets under management of ECP to €2.5 billion and adds new equity strategies to ECP's fund range.

Yves Colot has been appointed Head of Wealth Management Belgium. Experienced professionals from Eurinvest are joining ECP to reportedly ensure continuity for clients and to deepen on-the-ground expertise in Belgium. The Eurinvest brand will be discontinued as client relationships and assets are fully integrated under the ECP name.

ECP added that the acquisition entails a strategic shareholding change with STALCO SRL, owned by the Emsens family and Yves Colot, entering as a new strategic shareholder, "bringing long-term alignment, entrepreneurial experience and local anchoring in Belgium to support ECP's next growth phase". In parallel, Whitestone Partners Sàrl is exiting the shareholding structure of ECP. Stanislas Emsens joined ECP's Board of Directors on 19 September.

"First, I would like to thank Whitestone Partners Sàrl and Frédéric Pouchain for their past contributions," said Léon Kirch, Managing Partner, Chief Investment Officer and shareholder of ECP.

"This purchase marks a significant milestone in the evolution of ECP. It meaningfully accelerates our footprint in Belgium, enhances our solutions for high-net-worth clients and adds new equity strategies to our fund range," he continued. "I am particularly delighted to welcome Yves, the Belgian part of the former Eurinvest team and our new shareholder STALCO SRL. Our strategic shareholders will continue to play an active role as the wealth and asset management industry consolidates, where scale is increasingly essential to delivering best-in-class client service and meeting regulatory requirements."

"I would like to thank our former Eurinvest clients for joining us at ECP. I'm especially proud and deeply grateful, that all our clients are following us and that our Belgian team has joined ECP," said Yves Colot, Head of Wealth Management Belgium. "This transition lets us offer a broader range of solutions, underpinned by institutional-grade governance and a long-term value-investing philosophy, while preserving the personal, relationship-driven service our clients value." He added: "We are pleased to support ECP as strategic shareholder. ECP's disciplined investment approach and growing presence in Belgium create a strong basis for stable client-focused growth."

According to ECP, the transaction "demonstrates how Luxembourg's regulatory, governance and cross-border platform enables independent firms like ECP to combine scale with specialisation, export services across the EU and attract long-term entrepreneurial capital, all while keeping decision-making, employment and value creation anchored in Luxembourg."
