IDENTIFYING OPPORTUNITIES, STRUCTURING INVESTMENTS, DEVELOPING PROJECTS AND CREATING VALUE
Our history
Nader Enterprises was founded by George Alexander Nader with the purpose of organizing and consolidating all of his businesses and investments under a single investment, development and asset management company.
Mr. Nader, a cum laude graduate with a degree in Corporate Finance and Accounting from Bentley University in Boston, Massachusetts, founded Nader Enterprises while working as a financial analyst at a New York City-based investment bank focused on Financial and Strategic Advisory and Mergers and Acquisitions for companies in, or looking to enter, Latin America. In 2008, Mr. Nader moved back to the Dominican Republic in order to continue growing Nader Enterprises and capitalize on the different business opportunities present in the country.

INVESTMENT PRINCIPLES
We believe in a Principled Approach to life and that translates to our investments as well. We are focused on the preservation of capital and on having downside protection, we invest with a high moral and ethical standard and we only do business with people that have the same standards as us, we use leverage strategically and conservatively, we seek operational excellence and drive superior risk-adjusted return by investing in the right projects, buying right and controlling costs.

Our business model and overall investment strategy is based on a proactive participation in each of our investments, projects and operating companies. We specialize in identifying business opportunities, structuring investments, completing all the legal and financial due diligence and raising capital when necessary in order to capitalize on these opportunities. Once we agree to pursue an opportunity, we put together a business and project plan and execute swiftly.

For us to get involved, we need to see the potential for creating a lot of value for all of those involved. We take an institutional approach to everything we do.
