About Franjo Salic
As Chief Investment Officer at CYCAP, Franjo Salic is responsible for M&A, Asset Management and Power Markets. Together with his team, he develops a renewable energy portfolio of approximately EUR 2.7 billion in assets under management and more than 100 wind and solar assets across several investment vehicles.
His focus is on developing and expanding renewable energy portfolios in a way that makes them economically viable, operationally manageable and resilient over the long term.

Franjo Salic joined CYCAP in 2013 and has been a member of the Management Board since November 2024. His background is in banking, finance and management, with more than 16 years of experience in the project and financing business.
