About the Investment Team

Esemplia's culture is one built upon in-depth experience in these markets for almost two decades. It is one founded upon discipline, respect, transparency and accountability. Esemplia's people are best described as being as diverse as the markets in which they invest with representation of some 16 nationalities and 14 languages with a number of individuals having lived and worked in two or more emerging markets. This eclectic mix provides a unique blend of experience and perspective which we believe is particularly conducive to managing monies in emerging markets.
