ABOUT US
Welcome to BNDV Capital, an European single-family office.
BNDV Capital is Dolchester Group’s dedicated investment platform for the stewardship of multi-generational family capital. Originating as the Group’s in-house investment arm, BNDV Capital has evolved into a disciplined, governance-led platform that combines the long-term perspective of a family office with the analytical rigour of an institutional investor.
Fully backed by David Dolce, an international lawyer with over 10 years of experience in Private Equity and M&A at a global level.
The firm focuses on originating, structuring and managing investments across the consumer, hospitality, industrial, media and food sectors. Within these domains, BNDV Capital targets businesses with resilient business models, strong competitive positioning, recurring and visible cash flows, and high-calibre management teams committed to sustainable value creation.
Our investment philosophy is grounded in capital preservation, prudent leverage and active ownership. We favour situations where BNDV Capital can serve as a constructive partner to management and co-owners, applying board-level oversight, robust financial discipline and clear strategic direction. Investment decisions are underpinned by detailed fundamental analysis, conservative underwriting and a long-term orientation that prioritises compounding over short-term gains.
BNDV Capital’s distinctive approach is characterised by a concentrated portfolio, a deep understanding of our selected sectors and a willingness to engage actively at the board and shareholder level. The platform systematically reinvests cash flows to support organic growth, strategic acquisitions and operational improvement, seeking to align all stakeholders around enduring, long-term value creation.
