Gabriel Costa
Managing Director, Chief Investment Officer
Over the course of 20 years of investment experience, Gabriel has honed a deep understanding of global capital markets, business cycles, capital allocation, and the power of long-term investing. A steward of sound corporate governance, he has strategically aligned the interests of management, investors, and shareholders in his endeavors.
In 2010, he co-founded a Registered Investment Advisory (RIA) firm where, as Managing Partner, he prospected clients, oversaw portfolio management, and conducted investment strategies until the firm was acquired by Citigroup Inc in 2016.
Then, a passion for technology led Gabriel to executive roles in technology companies in the U.S. in the consumer, media, and healthcare space from 2017 to 2023.
This background gave him broad functional expertise, ranging from equity research and portfolio management to product management, corporate development/M&A, and corporate strategy.
Gabriel has been the Chief Investment Officer and Managing Director at Reserva Investments Ltd since 2013, when he led the initiative to incorporate the family office and structure its investment activities.
Gabriel serves on the Board of Directors at Grupo Sabin S/A, Zero Impacto Ltda, Ipê Holdings S/A, Kortex Ventures LLC, Grupo R2 S/A, and Instituto Sabin, our philanthropic organization.
Gabriel holds a B.Sc. in Economics and earned his M.B.A. from Cornell University. He also received executive education from Harvard Business School.
He is based in New York City.
