Loft Capital operates through a supervised multi-entity structure designed to provide institutional-grade governance, operational flexibility, and segregated investment exposure.
The platform is centred around Loft Capital Strategies SICAV p.l.c., a Maltese Notified PIF structure established for professional investors.
