A Management Science and Engineering major and Economics minor at Stanford University (California, USA), Luis Adaime started his career at Credit Suisse, where he became vice president. He also worked at BRZ Investimentos and York Capital. In 2013, he founded the Armadillo Fund, one of the most significant independent equity funds in Latin America (ex Brazil), which eventually managed $500 million. As portfolio manager of Armadillo, Luis became one of the first investors in Latam to implement ESG metrics in investment analysis.
In 2020, Luis decided to work with sustainability in a way that would have a higher impact. He launched MOSS with the mission of combating climate change and preserving the Amazon via the creation of a digital transaction platform for carbon credits. Luis believes that Brazil has the world’s main forest and needs to develop its carbon credit market, combining environmental preservation with economic growth.
