Acasta Partners is an alternative investment firm with offices in London, New York and Florida. The business was founded in 2009 and invests globally, employing a multi-disciplinary approach to investing. We favour niche strategies with barriers to entry, drawing on a breadth of expertise and a collaborative process to maximise the accessible investment opportunity across economic and market cycles. Our approach includes strategies directed at convertible bonds and volatility linked instruments, metals & mining companies and commodities, as well as fundamental and event-driven opportunities across the credit markets. Many senior members of the investment team have worked together across multiple decades, and we are trusted for our professionalism, expertise and judgement. Acasta’s business was launched in 2009 by Mike Humphries as the Polygon Convertible Opportunities strategy. We changed our name to Acasta Partners in 2022, drawing the inspiration from the Acasta Gneiss, a rock outcropping in the Canadian Northwest Territories. Formed nearly four billion years ago, this rock formation stands as an enduring archetype for a patient and robust investment framework. The gniess is comprised of unique and diverse minerals with visibly distinct bands, reflective of our collaborative and multi-disciplinary approach to investing. Acasta Partners is a relying adviser of TFG Asset Management LP, which is registered as an investment adviser under the United States Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
