Tempestas Capital

Bond Trading and TCAP Funds

Bond Trading

We look to purchase Corporate Paper that is investment grade, or if not rated Insurance wrapped/re insured to give at least A- rating. The bond ideally should have a minimum of 18 months to run but this can be shorter and will be discussed on a case by case basis. We look for $400m minimum up to $25bln maximum that carries at all times coupon enhancement.

Geographically, we are currently in the European and US/CANADIAN space.

Utilizing Tempestas’ settlement securities desks across USA and Europe, bonds will be delivered FOP (Free of Payment) for credit enhancement or DVP (Delivery versus Payment) for outright purchase utilizing firm funds/credit lines. All bonds received will need to be investment grade, trading or insurance wrapped providing the risk cover required to invest

What We Look For:

  • Bonds (Corporate/Bank – Investment Grade or Insurance Wrapped up to $/EUR 25Billion)
  • SBLCs (No current limit)
  • BGs (No current limit)
  • Investment Funds
  • Creation Funds for SBLC/BG
  • High Yield Investment Clients

TCAP Funds

At Tempestas Capital nothing is more important to us than discipline. What many try to achieve, many fail in achieving. Risk/Reward, are the keys to success. Rules that we always stick to and never break are as follows:

  • Keep within strategy margins.
  • Close at target return.
  • Charts are proven and models work, don’t deviate from them no matter what.

The fund will invest in listed Global Equities, Bonds and FX Markets. In Equities the fund will seek to invest in stocks that are set to capitalise on GDP growth. The chosen Equity picks will also be made using proven strategic Tempestas models.

Value and growth potential are the primary focus for the investment portfolio, including quality stocks with high dividend yields. The fund focuses on quality companies in attractively priced sectors with high growth potential such as:

  • Financial Services, Consumer Goods & Services, Information Technology, Pharma, Auto Manufacturing, Electric Generation & Distribution.
  • Cross-sector holding companies trading substantially below NAV.
  • Fixed income – local treasuries and select quality corporate issues.

The fund will not invest more than 15% of its available funds in any single stock. It will not allocate more than 40% of its available funds in any single sector.

Our Investment Philosophy

Our Funds are Actively Managed to ensure that a robust risk/return profile is maintained in all prevailing market conditions. The Fund does NOT employ leverage.

The asset allocation process applies a Core-Satellite Approach: uncorrelated core strategies define the majority of the portfolio risk/return profile, while carefully selected risk-diversifying strategies both enhance the diversification and capture higher positive returns.
