Clear-cutColibri AM characteristics
Our commitments
Transparency
The foundation of Colibri AM is transparency.
We disagree with those companies which advertise ESG investments for their image while at the same time little fundamental change emerges from the core activities (i.e. tiny windmill investments made by oil companies).
Socially Responsible Investments
Colibri AM’s main commitment targets ESG investments with a concrete impact, which is guided by our proprietary ESG rating framework to support environmental and social sustainability.
Our ratings hold a 50 % weighting for the environment, 30% for social values and 20% governance.
Securing investor capital
Risk management of the investment strategies is dependent upon asset diversification.
The investment fund is therefore largely constructed from a bottom/up standpoint to generate sustainable excess returns over the long term.
Profit sharing fund
Colibri AM’s mission is to raise funds for local projects, which preserve the environment and support social causes.

Axel Camilleri
Back-office and Communication Manager
Having graduated with a banking license as Financial Investment Advisor, Axel Camilleri worked in the back office at VMP Gestion.
In 2019 he took over the accounting management of the funds and worked closely in tandem with the fund managers, including Frédéric Hamm.
Frédéric Hamm
Asset manager
With a Master in product management and financial markets, Frédéric Hamm developed his skills at Agilis Gestion (portfolio manager of equity and balanced mutual funds), Iris Finance (Managing Director), and Carlton Selection before moving to VMP Gestion alongside Michel Camilleri.
He also works as trainer of derivative products (futures and options) dedicated to independent wealth management advisors and he has conducted interviews with the media (Bloomberg TV, Radio Classique, Boursorama and Investir).
In 2020, he decided to join Michel Camilleri to create SRI funds with Colibri AM.
He differentiates himself in portfolio management (25 years of experience) with the analysis of financial ratios, competitive advantages of companies and valuation.
His skill in technical analysis permits the “good timing” of investments, as well as money-management guidance, to ensure an optimal balance of risk and return.
Marc Frippiat
Asset Manager
Following Marc’s studies (BA Economics, MBA Finance), he began working at broker Dewaay Securities in Brussels (Belgian equity institutional sales), he subsequently moved to Fortis Private Banking (portfolio manager US/World equities), then joined the European Equities team of Fortis Investments in Paris (financial analyst covering the technology and industrial sectors), evolved as European equity fund manager at BNP Paribas Asset Management and after the merger became investment specialist for the emerging market capabilities.
Experience of different investment processes throughout three crises (technology bubble bursting, Great Recession, coronavirus) have permitted him to create outperforming, long-only equity strategies across geographies in bull/bear markets. The applied fundamental analysis focuses on sustainable business models, catalysts and valuation.
After thirty years in asset management, the long-lasting question of how financial markets can bring more concrete contributions to society will be addressed with a profit sharing fund. Marc joined Michel Camilleri in 2020 to launch truly socially responsible funds at Colibri Asset Management.
