Our meaning for Company and Investment

The sense for Company and Investment is rooted in Continental Europe’s history. Until “new” finance advent, they have been inextricably linked for centuries.

Enterprise/Venture originates from the Latin word imprèsa, something someone takes to do. Throughout Middle Ages Company was main knights’ inspiring concept. Soon after, Company was the reason of being for great explorers who gave rise to modern era.

Investire was the Latin word for investment. Investire: hand over the ownership of something to someone assigning the mantle or pallium. This would actually correspond to investment note/title. Only those realizing outstanding Venture could be invested in!
