A family-backed investor and advisor.
Meridian Atlas grew from the Van Persie family office, active in The Hague since the 1980s. Established in 2006 as the current family office, we invest our own capital in major projects and advise the governments, funds and operators who build them.
We invest our own capital in major projects, and we advise the people who build them. We are long-term owners — not developers, and not short-term traders.
Our roots lie in the Van Persie family office, a private family office in The Hague from the 1980s through the late 1990s. That practice shifted into Meridian Atlas when we were formed in 2006 as the current family office.
For close to 20 years we have worked on the financing, offtake, logistics and delivery that decide whether a major project succeeds — committing capital alongside our partners and staying for the long term.
Our desk is in The Hague. Our work is wherever the project is.
Our lineage.
Van Persie family office
A private family office in The Hague, investing patient capital and counsel for a single Dutch family.
A broader mandate
The practice outgrew a single-family structure and began the shift toward the investment and advisory house we are today.
Meridian Atlas
Meridian Atlas established in The Hague as the current family office — carrying forward the discipline of the Van Persie years.
First cross-border mandates
Investments and advise across Africa and Asia on energy, agriculture and industrial logistics.
Institutional partnerships
Blended family-office capital with sovereign and institutional co-investors on larger programmes.
Worldwide practice
Active across Africa, Europe, Asia, the Americas and Oceania — one standard for governance.
Who we invest and advise with.
Governments & sovereign funds
National infrastructure, energy and industrial programmes where the state needs a capable private partner — structuring, capital and delivery at the table.
Global operators & developers
Family offices, funds and corporates building at scale. We take the workstreams they cannot staff alone: logistics, offtake, grid, supply and financing.
A long-term partnership
Every project is a partnership: aligned capital, clear governance, and a role we hold for years rather than months.
One desk. A worldwide footprint.
We collaborate with firms and governments on every continent — from West Africa and the Gulf to India, Southeast Asia, Europe and the Americas.
