CarVal Investors began in 1987 as an organic development of Cargill’s proprietary high-yield trading operations and achieved critical mass in the wake of the United States’ financial crisis of the early 1990s. CarVal Investors expanded its product offering to include a series of worldwide businesses, thereby leveraging the strength of Cargill’s global infrastructure.

Today, with 125 investment professionals working with 215 administrative, tax and legal professionals in 15 offices across the globe, CarVal Investors is a recognized international leader in opportunistic value investing.

Cargill is an international provider of food, agricultural and risk management products and services. Founded in 1865, Cargill is headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and employs more than 153,000 people in 66 countries.

The photography on this website features The Niña, a full-size replica of the great caravel ship sailed by Christopher Columbus in 1492. With its triangular lateen sails, the caravel was exceptionally fast and maneuverable. And because of its design, the caravel not only crosses the oceans but also explores upriver and in shallow coastal water. Like the caravel ship, CarVal Investors is known for speed, agility, strength and dependability, as well as its ability to think globally and execute locally.
