Nazca sells its stake in IDP to Bureau Veritas: Advisors
Nazca Capital, a leading private equity investment firm in unlisted Spanish SMEs, has divested its stake in IDP, with Bureau Veritas becoming the Group’s new largest shareholder. This sale represents the third divestment of the Nazca Small Cap I Fund (raised in the first half of 2019) and comes after a growth project that has resulted in tripling its size since 2020.
