One of Europe’s leading alternative investment management firms.
We take pride in our people, the clients we serve and our investment expertise. Results matter but equally so do our values.
We manage over €65 billion across more than 6,000 portfolios.
Credit Opportunities Strategy (COPS)
The COPS strategy focuses on the purchase of granular, unsecured and secured consumer and SME loans. We target transactions of €5-500m across multiple asset types including credit cards, mortgages, personal and commercial loans, retail credit, auto loans, leasing and asset finance, utility bills and consumer public sector (including student loans).
COPS’ investment strategy offers a highly differentiated exposure within the private debt market through a well-diversified portfolio of performing, reperforming and non-performing loans purchased from banks, finance companies and other loan originators.
LCM’s sister company, Link Financial is one of Europe’s leading specialist loan servicers and as a Group, employs over 950 people across 12 European offices.
It has an established global network of servicing partners that offers greater coverage, providing unparalleled access to transactions and opportunities across key European and global markets.
We have a database of individual loan by loan level data on 7 million accounts across economic cycles that offers unique insights and underpins our track record of double digit, unleveraged returns.

Strategic Origination and Lending Opportunities (SOLO)
SOLO is a high-quality, asset-backed performing loan strategy that aims to generate robust, risk-adjusted returns.
Through SOLO, LCM forms long-term and exclusive partnerships with established originators across Europe to fund granular, high-quality, small and middle ticket loans and leases, with a typical advance of between €5,000 – €5m, to SMEs and individual borrowers.
The SOLO strategy targets a diverse range of attractive segments within secured loans, asset finance and leasing and select smaller ticket products which now fall outside the remit of banks and other traditional lenders.
As well as capital, LCM Partners are perfectly placed to provide originators with a full operating solution, leveraging the group’s technology, servicing platform and experience managing granular and difficult to manage loans.
LCM Partners recognises the importance of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues, both in the way we invest and in the way we manage our investments.
Our performance is a direct result of the expertise of our team.
