About us

Company overview

The firm

We are a boutique holdings group of companies operating throughout the globe. We invest in properties ranging from those experiencing market downturns to the most robust, utilizing an approach. Our portfolio of companies and investments is fluid and continually adapting.

We manage our asset acquisitions utilizing a unique approach that allows for both parties safety in cross-border transactions. This philosophy eliminates the need for costly and risky escrow agents to manage these high-value transactions between veritas and the seller.

Our asset acquisitions range from $125M with a ceiling of around $3.5B on prime commercial real estate acquisitions.

global strategy

Investing for Future Generations.

01Long-Term

Our long-term buy and hold approach to commercial real estate investing allows us to place highly competitive bids for assets in an ever-changing and uncertain market affected by economic, socio-economic and cyclical challenges.

02Rewarding

Our strategy makes transactions more mutually beneficial, giving us an advantage over any other buyer in the market. Utilizing this strategy allows us to offer more competitive bids on our target acquisitions industry-wide without sacrificing our future upside potential.

03Experience

With over forty-five years of combined investment banking experience, our leaders have a more secure and efficient way to operate in underperforming markets. Whether in a downward or over-extended market, we can navigate real estate investments for generations to come.

04Risk Adverse

Our strategy essentially removes any risk for the sellers by eliminating third-party (escrow) involvement and the opportunity for a lack of performance from either side. Our purchase protocol enables us to manage the transaction in a way in which both parties are in control.

Thomas Mitchell 

Co-Founder / Chief Operating Officer 

Veritas Structura Holdings 

 
Thomas Mitchell is a seasoned real estate strategist and financial innovator, serving as Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer of Veritas Structura Holdings. With more than two decades of expertise in global acquisitions and capital structuring, Thomas is instrumental in developing and executing the firm’s core vision: to revolutionize how high-value real estate and infrastructure assets are acquired and financed worldwide. 
 
A driving force behind the company’s operational and acquisition strategy, Thomas co-founded Veritas Structura after years of successfully negotiating large-scale transactions and pioneering a methodology that merges structured finance with asset-based acquisition models. 
 
Thomas began his career in commercial real estate investment and private capital consulting, advising high-net-worth individuals and institutional buyers on property acquisitions across the U.S., Middle East, and Asia. His experience spans: 
- Strategic negotiation and execution of multi-million-dollar real estate transactions 
- Structuring acquisition deals backed by BG/SBLC instruments and non-cash financing 
- Building trusted relationships with global developers, legal advisors, and family offices 
 
In 2020, Thomas became a founding executive of GTX Gruppo, the platform that evolved into Veritas Structura Holdings, built on the principles of secure, transparent, and seller-friendly transactions. 
 
As COO, Thomas oversees all global acquisition activities, operational systems, and transactional frameworks. His responsibilities include: 
- Identifying and qualifying off-market assets with strong ROI potential 
- Structuring cross-border acquisitions with minimal risk and maximum protection 
- Liaising with legal, banking, and government counterparts to ensure compliance 
- Leading internal operational strategy, from due diligence to execution 
 
Thomas’s leadership is marked by his ability to deliver clarity and structure in complex deal environments. He believes that real estate should be acquired with precision, protected by design, and governed by integrity.

Robert Thomas Ross

Chairman & Founding Partner 
Veritas Structura Holdings 

Robert Thomas Ross is an accomplished executive with over 30 years of leadership across global finance, real estate, and energy. As Chairman and Founding Partner of Veritas Structura Holdings, he brings unparalleled insight into structured capital and asset acquisition strategy, with a legacy rooted in innovation, integrity, and high-performance deal execution. Ross began his career at UBS, where he gained deep institutional experience in capital markets, private equity, and credit instrument structuring. His time there laid the foundation for a career that would soon evolve beyond traditional finance.

After years of working with public companies and advising high-growth ventures on mergers and acquisitions, Ross transitioned into the energy sector—specifically oil and gas—where he structured large-scale projects and expanded his understanding of asset-backed financing.

In the early 2010s, Ross identified a persistent inefficiency in global real estate: the lack of secure, transparent, and efficient capital mechanisms for cross-border transactions. He saw the opportunity to apply bank instruments such as BGs (Bank Guarantees) and SBLCs (Standby Letters of Credit) in a new, powerful way—enabling sellers to receive full cash value while allowing buyers to enter large-scale deals without exposing unnecessary upfront capital.

This vision led to the creation of GTX Gruppo in 2020, a company built around his acquisition model. By 2024, with the formation of new strategic partnerships and expanded global ambitions, GTX Gruppo evolved into Veritas Structura Holdings.

Today, Ross leads Veritas Structura as a platform for structured, high-value acquisitions in hospitality, commercial real estate, and infrastructure. His work has enabled transactions across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, facilitating millions in capital movement through innovative, secure structures that protect all parties involved.

A visionary at heart, Ross continues to shape Veritas Structura into a global leader, redefining how sophisticated capital flows into real estate and infrastructure markets.
