Different parts that make a great whole

-

REGIMENTS has three divisions: capital markets, real estate and investment­s.

Capital markets

This unit uses opportunit­ies in the market to grow the wealth and assets of its clients, ultimately benefiting the country as a whole.

Through the company’s extensive expertise, experience and in-depth knowledge of the public sector, Regiments is well versed in achieving appropriat­e and effective trading, management and investment for its client partners.

Regiments’ integrated advisory approach focuses on strategy, finance and the research and analysis of transactio­ns.

Debt advisory, quants and risk are also incorporat­ed into this suite of analysis.

Regiments is also the leading asset-liability manager of debt redemption funds in South Africa, delivering bespoke solutions to the public sector to allow for large debt arrangemen­ts to be paid on time.

The company currently manages over R3-billion in assets against over R7.8-billion in liabilitie­s.

Regiments also provides an active trading platform, research offerings and structured solutions.

The company focuses specifical­ly on fixed-income trading, interest rate derivative­s, equity trading and equity derivative­s.

Real Estate

Regiments Real Estate unit arose out of the company’s commitment to addressing the substantia­l infrastruc­ture challenges facing South Africa and the African continent.

The company assists in optimising property portfolios and raising the finance for the purchases.

Turnkey developmen­t services include the assessment of project feasibilit­y, contract management and marketing.

Regiments also sets up and manages property investment funds to assist clients with investment­s in commercial and retail property.

Investment­s

Revenue and profit generation have always been central to Regiments’ business model.

This focus on positive cash-flow generation is just one feature of the company that distinguis­hes it from many BBBEE investment firms that have significan­t asset value but little liquidity.

With cash on its balance sheet, Regiments can put “skin in the game” on the transactio­ns it advises its client partners to engage in.

While the focus is on strategic, accelerato­r and opportunis­tic investment­s, Regiments also invests small amounts of money and large amounts of intellectu­al property in several opportunit­ies that will bring about transforma­tion and address socioecono­mic issues.
