Terra Capital gets boost from industrials offerings


A repositioning of holdings at the end of 2016 will see boutique investment manager, Terra Capital, continue increasing its focus on capturing opportunities for investment in lithium and other specialist industrial metals.
The Terra Capital natural resources fund, which has a focus in global listed small to mid-sized mining and energy companies, was positioned to grow well in the medium-term future, according to chief investment officer, Jeremy Bond.
In January, the fund produced a one-month return of 8.01 per cent next to a 2.94 per cent return for the S&P/ASX Small Resources Index.
"We are now sitting with what we think present the best opportunities for significant capital growth over the next six to 12 months," he said.
"Our portfolio breakdown in terms of commodities is leveraged to the parts of the commodity complex that have performed well and we think will continue to perform well."
