Luis Felipe Fuenmayor: CAB Capital’s new CEO discusses investment adaptability and discovering new opportunities

In the wake of globalization and the FinTech revolution, modern investors have more opportunities than ever before, with more information and tools available to inform their decisions. Despite the wider range of investments and wealth of knowledge at an investor’s disposal, catching up to a rapidly advancing field like FinTech can be an overwhelming experience for industry newcomers, outsiders, or those with a more reserved investment strategy. Luis Felipe Fuenmayor, the visionary new CEO of CAB Capital Group, believes that it’s not only possible to educate even the most tech-shy investors, it’s important. “Bringing new investors into the field is great for everyone,” he says. “It’s great for the investors, it helps the companies they’re investing in, and it’s a huge benefit to the industry as a whole.” Fuenmayor and the CAB Capital team aim to open the door to new opportunities for the next generation of investors.

Luis Felipe Fuenmayor is Changing the Game for CAB Capital

CAB Capital Group is a private investment firm with more than 15 years of experience in the finance sector. Created in Panama as a small business with a keen eye for innovation, the company quickly expanded its operations to Colombia and the US.

Luis Felipe Fuenmayor accepted the position of Chief Executive Officer at CAB Capital Group in July 2021. Born in Colombia, Fuenmayor came to the US on a soccer scholarship at the age of 18. After college, he went back to Colombia to study and work in the financial sector. He eventually went on to pursue his MBA at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia. Returning to Colombia again, he worked for several companies before creating his own, TANTRA Imports Ltda. After two decades of studying and working in finance across the world, he joined CAB Capital in November of 2020, becoming the company’s CEO less than a year later.

Harnessing the Power of the Full Spectrum of Finance

CAB Capital blends traditional finance with new technology, such as FinTech and Crowdfunding, to craft innovative and strategic financial solutions for investors. The company believes that we must integrate these elements to take full advantage of the opportunities presented by the globalized, tech-fuelled modern market. CAB Capital’s unique approach and commitment to innovation have helped to establish the company as a leading name in the global private banking sphere.

Section 8 Housing is a Valuable Investment for All Involved

CAB Capital has recently turned its attention towards a new avenue for low-risk investments through a disruptive product from one of the group’s companies, CAB Realty: Section 8 housing. Finding new tenants can be a challenge for many landlords, especially during periods of high rent prices. With Section 8 housing, the government can keep units occupied and rent paid on time, as they have a long list of tenants waiting for an available property. Some property owners are working directly with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to rent through a project-based voucher. This means that as soon as one Section 8 tenant moves out, the next in line will take their place. As the government pays a portion (sometimes a majority) of a tenant’s rent, Section 8 housing investments can make for safer, more reliable investments.

CAB Realty’s work in Section 8 housing represents a unique opportunity to provide a deeper level of value to a wider range of people. Section 8 housing is very beneficial for those who struggle to make ends meet. Helping to provide and sustain this essential service is incredibly important, and CAB Capital is proud to be doing its part. Not only do Section 8 investments help the tenants, the reliability of government payments decreases the risk for both investors, landlords, and property owners. “It really is a win-win situation for everyone,” Fuenmayor commented. Beyond the company’s work in Section 8, opportunities for innovation abound in the booming FinTech space, and CAB Capital can’t wait to see where this revolutionary field goes next.  Learn more about CAB Capital Group at https://cabgroup.org/.
