In addition to guaranteeing portfolios solidity and competitive returns to his clients through Valeur Group, Lorenzo Vangelisti is also committed to supporting young talents and turning them into successful professionals. Since the beginning of its activity, Valeur Group has picked the members of the team among talented and dedicated university students, educated them to deepen their knowledge of financial markets and portfolio management with the support of highly qualified investment professionals and then he gave them the opportunity to work and build their careers within the firm.

By combining everyone’s experience and skills, the path to reach the goal can acquire an even greater value and go far beyond what was initially hoped for”, he says.
