Regional Focus

The regional focus for Hussar & Co. comes primarily from the team’s industry knowledge and area of expertise. This is typically comprised of South-Eastern Europe, Russia and the CIS, and finally Central Europe.

Hussar & Co. and its advisors have committed themselves to the region and have identified a key capital shortfall throughout Emerging Europe. The opportunity for Hussar & Co.’s exists where:

  • The typical investment universe has overlooked companies due to geographic or size constraints
  • Countries are facing an imminent EU accession, opening up companies into favorable trade relations with new markets
  • Clients have self-sustaining business models, of which have prevailed throughout the global financial crisis and have isolated themselves from EU contagion
  • Countries which have imminent market upside pertaining to the emergence of their economy as a whole.


To best capitalize on these opportunities, Hussar & Co. has stationed itself with headquarters in New York, and regional offices in Moscow and Belgrade.
