With 35 years consolidated of experience in the financial and real estate sector, Andrea Agostinone is an entrepreneur and venture capitalist. His ventures span on an international level, beginning in 1992 as a Junior Consultant by DAFISA EUROTRUST, a company based in Malta that specialized in international tax planning, collaborating with several Italian magazines and newspapers as a financial journalist and commentator. It was the first step on a path that subsequently led him to co-found and become Managing Partner of UK-based CMP &Partners, LLP (2002) and to create Jasis Brokers and Consultants, LLP, both companies active in the M&A and Corporate Finance sector.
After 15 years of practice as an international tax planning expert, his entrepreneurial career took off and, between 2009 and 2013, he co-founds the French UCITS 4 investment fund Vantage Plus Diversifié, the real estate group Colonna Group, the Estonian financial company Cofi A/S and The Shoreline Charter Co. (a Maltese company active in the luxury yachts charter market). Between 2014 and 2015 he expanded his activities to the Principality of Monaco, becoming Merchand des biens immobiliers and founded, assuming the role of Managing Director, MESEN Associated DWC LLC in a Dubai.
In 2015, one of the companies he had co-founded years before, COFI A/S was granted a full European Banking License, rebranding in INBANK A/S. As a co-founder and shareholder of INBANK A/S, an Estonian banking group currently active in 6 European countries, he helped the venture to become one of European leading digital lending bank platforms in embedded finance.
Andrea Agostinone combined his entrepreneurial spirit, especially in the first part of his career, with side activities led by the same commitment he has in business: former professional swimmer, he was the 2006 Master World champion in the 50-meter breaststroke and the 4 x 50-meter relay and he holds several European and World records. His interests also include skiing and motor racing: he is an accomplished FAA and EASA commercial pilot for airplanes, and seaplanes helicopters.
