WHAT MAKES US SPECIAL

Introduction

Long in the making, VERSO's reputation has been built in sweat, trust and performance. Our Partnership with AXIOM Capital in Switzerland is no different. Our dedicated investment team is led by Stanislas Mazuranic, Managing Partner and Founder at AXIOM Capital, a seasoned commodity finance professional with leading international banking institutions and alternative investment funds (AuM USD 1.5B AUM), having worked with SMEs as well as large integrated traders.

Key Features.

VERSO and AXIOM have partnered to launch an investment strategy directly supporting international trade flows and the SMEs that manage these important economic functions.

 

The strategy offers to investors:

  • Consistent Returns: attractive return, notably due to the low expected volatility as a result of the mostly transactional and short-term structure of the investments and the senior nature of the financing.

  • Liquidity Provision: active portfolio management where investors can increase their participation each month, recycle their gains, and redeem or adjust their position at very short notice, with exits permitted at the end of each month +90 days.

  • Diversification: the strategy offers low correlation with the equity and bond markets, providing attractive diversification and regular income (quarterly payments or reinvestment).

  • Real Economy Focus: Direct financing of international trade flows and SMEs

The team has successfully managed credit portfolios ranging from tens of millions to multi-billion-dollar facilities across the full risk spectrum. Leadership combines C-suite operational experience (COO, Trade Finance Director) with deep credit structuring expertise, complemented by academic credentials teaching commodity finance at the University of Geneva. This unique blend of institutional investing and trading-floor expertise enables superior risk-adjusted returns in the commodity finance asset class.

Indeed, our dedicated investment team is led by Stanislas Mazuranic who cumulated over 16 years of experience and who was responsible for managing clients with credit lines up to several billion dollars. He also served as finance director at a global trading firm. In addition, he is a lecturer in DAS and MAS at the School of Economics and Management at the University of Geneva, teaching Credit & Asset Management as well as Commodity Financing and Treasury.

 

Furthermore, strengthening the investment team is a senior financial advisor with over 15 years of experience in commodity finance. She held key positions in leading international banking institutions, spanning both credit risk management and front-office roles, and also served as trade finance director at a global trading firm. This dual perspective equips her with a deep understanding of risk, commodity finance, and the operational realities of international trade.
