Overview
Terra Capital seeks to achieve capital appreciation while attempting to reduce risk primarily by applying a disciplined and diversified value investing philosophy. It used to be called Speymill Macau Property Company. The fund is managed by Terra Partners Asset Management Limited, a company owned by Howard Golden, Fillip Montfort and Yarden Mariuma who served as three of the four directors during the sale of the property portfolio of the Company when it was known as Speymill Macau.
The plan is for the company to invest using one or more of corporate activism, investing in a diversified portfolio of value stocks, investing in emerging and frontier markets, providing cash flow to investors, geographical diversification, diversification and asset allocation, derivatives and short-selling, borrowings and currency hedging.
