The Team
A Founder-Led Investment Management Firm Built for Long-Term Compounding
Otodus Global is led by its two founding partners, aligned around a shared philosophy that process-driven capital allocation is the foundation of durable, long-term returns.
Lucas Koelle
CEO & Portfolio Manager
Lucas founded Otodus Ltd. in 2022 and co-founded Otodus Global LLC in 2023. A graduate of Harvard University with an A.B. in History, he leads all investment decisions across the portfolio; responsible for idea generation, portfolio construction, and capital allocation across global equity markets.
The firm's investment framework is grounded in a clear distinction: risk is not volatility; risk is the permanent loss of capital. That principle anchors every decision at the portfolio level and defines how Otodus Global approaches downside protection and risk-adjusted capital allocation.
Prior to founding Otodus, Lucas was a professional tennis player who represented Brazil internationally; a background that informs the firm's approach to performance under pressure, process discipline, and long-term thinking.
Pedro Vidigal
COO & Investment Partner
Pedro Vidigal co-founded Otodus Global LLC in 2023, contributing institutional research depth and operational rigor to the firm's process. He holds a B.A. in Business Administration from Insper (São Paulo, Brazil) and developed his foundation in equity research at Eleven Financial Research and Genial Investimentos, with additional experience in private markets.
Pedro leads the firm's analytical and operational functions; financial analysis, fundamental underwriting, portfolio monitoring, NAV reporting, and fund infrastructure. Within the partnership, he serves as both executor and analytical check on the investment process, ensuring that research depth translates into disciplined execution.
The structure of Otodus Global is a deliberate design choice, built to think long and act without short-term pressure.
