Kom verder
{Moving · forward · together}
There’s a saying in Dutch, Kom verder, which has many meanings including ‘moving forward together’. But it’s more than a phrase to us. It’s our company philosophy and how we work with clients to deliver the right investment solutions for them.
Founded in 1737, Van Lanschot Kempen is the oldest independent financial institution in the Netherlands. Our heritage is important to us. But we’re more focused on where we’re headed.
We’re not all things to all people. Instead, we do a few things really well. Like fiduciary management and high-conviction, active investment strategies that focus on where we can add the most value.

Small caps strategy
Discovering Small Caps
There’s a saying in Dutch, Kom verder, which has many meanings including ‘progress through collaboration’. This hands-on style encapsulates how we invest in promising smaller companies. And it’s what we’ve been doing for close to 30 years.
When we find the right companies, we get to know what makes their leaders tick and this deep understanding helps us build concentrated portfolios. In this way, we support, challenge and help small caps achieve their full potential.
