MANAGEMENT

OVERVIEW

The Aquasia Team have extensive experience in the credit, fixed income and property market which gives it a strong understanding of markets dynamics and the changes taking place in the regulatory environment.

Aquasia continues to see good investment opportunities in today’s loan and fixed-income markets as a consequence of the regulatory environment confronting the banking sector. With local banks scaling back lending in particular sectors this is providing opportunities to enhance returns and deliver steady income streams. This may be through the acquisition or refinancing of assets from financial institutions or sellers disposing of quality financial assets or portfolios for strategic reasons or due to the need to restructure their assets to satisfy prudential requirements.

FUND HISTORY

Since the establishment of Aquasia in 2009, five wholesale credit funds have been launched, two of which successfully matured and repaid. In addition, private equity opportunities may arise where the skills of the Aquasia Team Knowledge and Experience can be utilised.
