[…] Revisiting the past, I have come to the conviction that it would not be possible to work for so long in such a sensitive field without counting on the trust of so many clients to carry out what are often the most significant transactions of their entire entrepreneurial life.“
(Quote from the book “Per i sentieri impervi della finanza, by Francesco Caretti interviewed by Giorgio Brunetti, 24 Ore Group”)
Our roots
Caretti & Associati Srl was founded in 1992 by Francesco Caretti, as an entrepreneurial evolution of his twenty year professional career in corporate finance, after having held the highest office of Caboto and later of “La Centrale Finanziaria”. Thanks to this previous experience, Francesco Caretti was among the pioneers in building capital markets and the corporate finance sector in Italy.
Over the years the younger generation of the family joined Caretti & Associati, contributing to the evolution and growth of businesses both in Italy and internationally.
Caretti & Associati is a member of AIDAF (the Italian Association of Family Owned Businesses) with whom we share values and initiatives.
