Our clients span a wide range of industries and business sizes, but they share a common experience: working with a financial partner that takes their objectives seriously and delivers with precision. The following testimonials reflect the real outcomes and working relationships that define REALSTEP's approach to client service.
"REALSTEP arranged a structured debt facility for our equipment expansion that three other institutions had told us was too complex to underwrite within our timeframe. Their team understood the asset base, modelled the cash flows accurately, and delivered term sheets within six weeks. The relationship has since grown to include our treasury management, and the quality of reporting we receive is genuinely superior to what we had before."
— Marco Delacroix, CFO – Veltri Industrial Group
★★★★★
"We moved our managed mandate to REALSTEP after becoming frustrated with opaque reporting and generic allocation decisions from our previous manager. The difference has been significant: our portfolio is now structured around our actual liquidity needs and risk tolerance, and we receive clear attribution reporting every month. In eighteen months, the mandate has performed in line with the upper quartile of our benchmark."
— Ingrid Hoffmann, Managing Partner – Hoffmann Family Office
★★★★★
"We engaged REALSTEP to arrange financing for a mixed-use development project that required both senior debt and mezzanine capital. Their real estate team conducted thorough due diligence and identified a financing structure we had not considered, which ultimately reduced our cost of capital by a meaningful margin. The process was professional and the communication throughout was clear and timely."
— Stefano Canali, CEO – Canali Developments S.r.l.
★★★★☆
"REALSTEP has been our intermediation partner for cross-border capital transactions for the past two years. Their knowledge of European regulatory requirements saved us considerable time and legal cost on our last acquisition financing. They are responsive, straightforward about what is and is not achievable, and have never overpromised on timelines or outcomes — which in our experience is rare."
— Annika Sorensen, Finance Director – NordPath Logistics AB
★★★★★
"As a smaller institutional player, we sometimes find that larger financial institutions allocate their best people to bigger mandates. That has never been the case with REALSTEP — we have always had direct access to senior advisors who understand our portfolio strategy in detail. Their co-investment deal flow has also been consistently relevant and well-documented."
— Luca Ferretti, Founder – Ferretti Capital Partners
