Fasanara, Mattioli launch Ferrari-backed lending platform

Fasanara Capital and Mattioli Automotive Group on 3 June 2026 announced the launch of the Fasanara Ferrari Lending Platform and the Fasanara Ferrari Strategy: Owner’s Circle from London, Los Angeles and Modena. The initiative will originate and manage loans secured by individual Ferrari automobiles and operate an investor access programme for Ferrari events.

The platform pairs Fasanara’s institutional private credit capabilities with Mattioli Automotive Group’s dealer, service and restoration operations to underwrite and administer vehicle-backed loans. Loans will be secured against individual Ferraris and include an active value-creation programme for selected cars to help preserve or enhance collateral value during the loan term.

Seed capital for the strategy is expected to come from two existing Fasanara funds: the ONE Fasanara Multi-Strategy (F-ONE) and the Fasanara Sports Lending Strategy. Fasanara described the allocation as part of a focus on multi-strategy asset-backed private credit and specialised lending markets where origination and collateral expertise are central to returns.

Mattioli Automotive Group, led by Giacomo Mattioli and headquartered in Beverly Hills, will supply dealer and service capabilities across the Ferrari ownership lifecycle. The group operates three Ferrari dealerships — Ferrari Beverly Hills, Ferrari Westlake and Ferrari Pasadena — plus two service centres. It also includes the factory-backed racing team Scuderia Corsa and Modena-based restoration specialist Bacchelli & Villa.

Fasanara said the dealer network, restoration workshop and racing operation provide direct access to owners, collectors and enthusiasts, supporting loan origination and collateral maintenance. Scuderia Corsa’s motorsport services and track events were cited as revenue sources that support collector engagement.

The Owner’s Circle is an investor programme offering curated access to Ferrari-focused experiences, including private dinners, scenic drives, collector gatherings and concours events. Fasanara presented the programme as an opportunity for investors to combine a financial allocation to luxury-asset-backed credit with membership-style access to Ferrari events.

Francesco Filia, founder and CEO of Fasanara Capital, described the platform as linking private credit to a “resilient luxury asset class.” Filia said: “Ferrari is not simply a car. It is heritage, scarcity, performance, design, and identity. Fasanara Ferrari Lending allows us to finance that ecosystem in a disciplined, collateralised, and scalable way.”

Enzo Mattioli Ferrari, CEO of Bacchelli & Villa and President of Cavallino Classic, will serve as ambassador for the initiative. He commented: “The Ferrari collectors’ ecosystem is built on passion, memory, and authenticity. This platform is designed to celebrate that heritage while opening a new chapter for investors who want to be part of something distinctive.”
