The story of Dalmatian Capital Management
DCM was founded in 2018 by long term colleagues Jay Johnston and Angel Gyaurov. With offices in the United States and Bulgaria, DCM seeks to exploit opportunities in both emerging markets and the developed world with primary focus on acquisition and strategic repositioning /distressed and restructuring.
​
We advise and manage direct investments and co-investments alongside private equity sponsors/managers in growth capital opportunities in the mid-market sector.
Our approach is to focus on quality companies and work together with management and business owners to grow the business for long-term value creation.
Advisory Focus
We like to partner with companies where we can add value as an active and engaged investor and advisor. We only engage with companies where we have a thorough understanding of the underlying business model and the risk profile of the transaction.
Advisory Services
DCM is known for its financial advisory services, particularly in mergers and acquisitions (M&A). We advise corporations, governments, and other institutions on strategic transactions.
Asset Management
The firm has a significant asset management arm, which is consistent with the wealth management aspect of traditional merchant banking.
Principal Investing
Historically, DCM has engaged in principal investing, though this aspect has become less prominent in recent years due to regulatory changes and shifts in the banking industry.
DCM's history and business model closely align with the concept of merchant banking. It has been associated with elite financial services and has maintained its independence while many other merchant banks have been acquired by larger financial institutions.
Today, DCM's focus is on advisory services, but its heritage and continued operations in asset management is in line with the modern evolution of the traditional merchant banking model.
