July 17, 2025 — Moneta Asset Management announces the closing of MME 2030, its fifth Specialized Professional Fund (FPS) focused on the less liquid segments of the listed equity market. In just three months on the market, the fund reached its hard cap of €155 million, confirming the enduring appeal of the small- and mid-cap strategy developed by the firm.
A closed-end strategy to capture market inefficiencies
Like its predecessors (MME 2026 to 2029), MME 2030 is structured as a five-year closed-end fund, with no option for subscriptions or redemptions during the fund’s term. This stability in liabilities allows Moneta to adopt a contrarian and opportunistic management style, particularly with illiquid securities, which are often under pressure during periods of market stress.
“The highly successful launch of MME 2030 demonstrates investors’ confidence in Moneta, as they have not hesitated to commit to at least five years with us. I thank them for this. We are honored by this trust. It has made Moneta a leading player in active management, particularly in the segment of listed small and medium-sized enterprises, with unmatched long-term performance, as illustrated by the Moneta Micro Entreprises share, which has risen from €100 22 years ago to over €2,200 today. “All of us at Moneta will strive to continue to earn this precious trust,” says Romain Burnand, Chairman of Moneta
A significant contribution to the real economy
With MME 2030, Moneta strengthens its position in this strategic segment and completes a range now comprising six closed-end funds, alongside the historic Moneta Micro Entreprises mutual fund (closed since 2009) and the 2026–2029 vintages, all locked in for a five-year term.
“The excellent fundraising for this fifth closed-end fund was made possible by the strong commitment of all Moneta AM departments, as well as that of our many partners, who enthusiastically helped promote the fund to investors. Our vehicles play a major role in providing permanent equity capital to listed companies, particularly SMEs and mid-cap firms, which are in great need of it. We will continue in the future to offer products that are not only innovative but also economically useful, and we will do everything we can to ensure they perform very well.” Andrzej Kawalec, Chief Executive Officer
An approach aligned with Moneta’s DNA
Independent and 100% owned by its management and employees, Moneta AM continues its mission of long-term investing in European markets, with a focus on under-researched listed companies. As of June 30, 2025, the company managed approximately €3.4 billion, spread across eight equity funds: three liquid UCITS and five closed-end funds.
The launch of MME 2030 is part of a clear strategy: combining a long-term investment horizon, strong selectivity, and economic value.
