... and a promising future
In 2004, after substantial restructuring, BNP Paribas sold Cobepa to a group of family shareholders assembled by Cobepa's management.
 
Among these family shareholders are Agemar (a private company controlled by certain branches of the Belgian de Spoelberch family), the Van Malderen family (Belgium), Caledonia Investments (an investment trust of the Cayzer family – UK), La Luxembourgeoise (a private insurance company of the Luxemburg Hentgen family), Benjamin de Rothschild (Switzerland), the Josi Group (a private investment company – Belgium). The balance of shareholders comprises Cobepa's management and a few other private investors.
 
The shareholder base of Cobepa is a powerful asset in the implementation of its investment activities.  Its quality and diversity give access to privileged contacts for Cobepa in many companies; its exclusively family and entrepreneurial characteristic ensure a perfect consistency between the investment policy of Cobepa and the expectation of its shareholders.  
Finally it brings to Cobepa the financial means and stability necessary to the development of its investments.
  
Cobepa is today a private investment company with a net worth of over 600 M€.  Our experience as an investor, the quality of our team and our shareholders provide us with the means to contribute to the profitable growth of our investments and therefore ensure our own long term value creation.
