Terra Firma means ‘solid ground’. It reflects our consistent and distinctive approach to investment. We buy asset-rich businesses in essential industries that can be transformed through fundamental change in the long term. As such, we invest time, money and expertise into transforming the strategy, operations and finances of the businesses we acquire, recognising that long term success is not achieved purely by focusing on short-term objectives but through dedicated partnership, integrity and tenacity.
