Cambium

Why Cambium exists

Los Cabos is one of the fastest-growing real estate and hospitality markets in the Americas. In 2024 alone, public USD sales exceeded $1.4 billion — and the real market, including private master-planned communities, is significantly larger. Capital flows into Baja California Sur from the United States, Canada, and beyond — through direct investment, asset managers, private equity, and individual buyers — all converting into pesos to fund developments, custom homes, and hospitality assets across the state.

Almost none of it is managed. The USD/MXN exchange rate is one of the most actively traded and volatile currency pairs in the world. Over a 12 to 24-month construction timeline, rate movements of 10 to 15 percent are not unusual. That volatility turns every unhedged cross-border transaction into an open position — and for most participants in this market, that position is completely unmanaged.

Developers price and sell in dollars but build in pesos, with no structure around the exchange rate exposure embedded in every milestone payment. Project managers build FX contingencies into budgets instead of hedging. Asset managers and private equity funds deploying capital into Mexico accept execution rates from their banking relationships without benchmarking. Private investors absorb whatever rate they are given on the day.

Cambium was founded to change that. We provide structured foreign exchange management — forward contracts, rate planning, and ongoing advisory — for anyone converting USD, CAD, or any currency into Mexican pesos. Whether you are a developer managing a construction draw schedule, an asset manager deploying capital into a hospitality venture, or a private investor building a home, Cambium is your partner on the ground.

The founder

Founder

  • 10+ years across multiple areas of finance
  • Capital budgeting, investment strategy, company management
  • 4 years working alongside developers and asset managers in Los Cabos
  • Real estate and hospitality investment and management

Cambium was founded by a finance professional with over a decade of experience across multiple areas of finance — including capital budgeting, investment strategy, and company management. Born from four years of working directly alongside the developers, general partnerships, and asset managers operating in Los Cabos, the gaps were clear: pre-sale projects exposed to rate moves that put entire developments at risk, engineers using blunt contingencies where structured hedging would have been more effective, and institutional and private investors absorbing exchange rate losses they did not know were avoidable.
