Five Firms Manage 16 of 32 Publicly Profiled Portugal Golden Visa Funds

IM Gestão de Ativos (IMGA) appears on six public profiles, the largest number in the directory. Quadrantis Capital appears on four. Three firms appear on two profiles each: 3 Comma Capital, ActiveCap Capital Partners, and STAG Fund Management. Sixteen other firms appear once.

The table measures directory coverage, not the amount of money each firm manages. One manager could appear on several smaller funds while another operates one much larger vehicle. The public profiles do not provide a standardized figure for Golden Visa capital by manager, so the data cannot support an asset-market-share ranking.

IMGA's wider business illustrates the difference. Its own business indicators report €6.172 billion under management at the end of 2025 and a 23.5% share of Portugal's overall fund-management industry. Those totals include IMGA's broader product range. They do not show how much money sits in the six Golden Visa fund profiles counted here.

Profile count also says little about the merits of a particular fund. It does not reveal portfolio concentration, valuation policy, conflicts, liquidity terms, exit history, or the basis on which fees are charged. A manager's legal identity and registration are more basic checks, but they still need to be matched to the exact vehicle named in the subscription documents.

AIMA's current route wording requires qualifying fund units to have a maturity of at least five years at the time of investment and at least 60% of the investment value to be placed in Portuguese commercial companies. These conditions determine route eligibility. Manager quality and immigration approval require separate assessment.

Before subscribing, an investor can check the vehicle and management entity through the public CMVM information service. Some manager profiles also display a Legal Entity Identifier linked to the GLEIF register, which provides another way to check the legal name and identifier status. A missing LEI on a profile does not prove that the firm lacks one.

The practical starting file is short: the manager's exact legal name and registration details, the fund's current prospectus or management regulation, the subscription agreement, the fee schedule, and the latest investor report. Match the names and identifiers across those documents, the manager directory, CMVM, and GLEIF. If they do not reconcile, ask the manager and Portuguese counsel to explain the difference before subscription.
