<\/a>The agribusiness strategy makes direct investments in industrial scale commodity production facilities in Brazil, Uruguay and Australia. The strategy employs a long-term investment horizon of seven years to increase efficiency, production and profit of its projects, before monetizing its investments via trade sale or IPO. Galtere is aiming to raise US$1 billion of assets from institutions, endowments and family offices.<\/p>\nThe strategy is lead-managed by portfolio manager Renatto Barbieri who had previously spearheaded the development of Deutsche Bank Global Markets\u2019 natural resource private equity business, and whose 20-year track record spans five continents across a wide-range of commodity markets.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt Galtere, we have always advocated a long term view on commodities markets, rather than reacting to short term changes, and this is an ideal strategy for investors who share that view.\u201d Barbieri said, \u201cI believe the geography, supply and demand conditions and resources of the countries we have targeted present a wealth of attractive agricultural projects, and we have already begun to invest in projects that offer excellent long term growth potential. The current global and financial conditions make it an ideal time to be launching this strategy, and we are excited at what we can achieve for our investors.\u201d<\/p>\n
The strategy aims to capitalise on a market trend the firm has termed \u2018inverse stagflation\u2019, where deflation in financial assets such as equities coincides with inflation in real assets, such as agricultural commodities.<\/p>\n
In addition, the strategy will take advantage of a favourable supply\/demand dynamic for agricultural commodities as sources of food and fuel. The UN has predicted global population to be 7.7 billion by 2020, while arable land is expected to decrease by 100 million hectares in the same time. The resulting increase in the value of production facilities for soft commodities will allow the strategy to maximise the returns from its investments.<\/p>\n
