NOTES:

Terra Capital plc is an AIM quoted investment company focussed on generating high absolute returns while attempting to keep volatility to a minimum. The Fund predominantly invests in under-researched and under-valued companies listed on Frontier Market stock exchanges. The Fund Manager targets for investment companies that it believes are trading for less than their intrinsic worth and so, aside from any potential growth prospects, provide scope for capital appreciation as a result of a reversion towards their underlying value. Investments are also made in companies which are viewed as trading at fair value but which offer opportunities for growth at a reasonable price. The Investment Manager believes many such 'value' opportunities can be found in Frontier Markets due to inherent market inefficiencies in such markets. The Manager utilises in-house teams of its own analysts, resident on the ground in areas of interest to investigate suitable opportunities rather than rely on third party research.
