Mehdi El Jazouli is CEO of Perpetua Investment Group, an investment firm he co-founded to pursue market opportunities that larger institutions tend to overlook because of their size and complexity. Bringing over a decade of financial services experience, he has built the firm's strategy around identifying niche businesses and scaling them into substantial investment vehicles, earning a reputation for spotting trends early and acting on them quickly.
Under his leadership, Perpetua launched two distinct funds: Park Capital, which invests in listed European companies through equity or convertible debt, and Polaris SPC, a quantitative hedge fund capped at $100 million in assets. In roughly three years, the firm grew from three founders to twenty-five employees while managing more than $200 million in investments.
El Jazouli favors unconventional hiring, deliberately bringing in people from varied backgrounds to keep the organization's problem-solving approach fresh and creative.
