The Significance of Our Name

 

A "proa" is a multi-hulled outrigger sailboat, whose design traces back to Polynesia during the First Century. Owing to its unique structure, it has superior stability and remarkable speed.

Today's proas are epitomized by ocean-racing catamarans and trimarans, which hold sailing's speed records and literally fly over the water.

Like its namesake, Proa Global Partners collaborates closely in real-time with our clients as they pursue investments in high-growth emerging markets that generate large risk-adjusted returns.  

We partner side-by-side with them to assist in both the design and the execution of operational strategies that provide the agility to quickly seize 'first-mover' advantages, withstand exposure to risks, and ensure durability of their investments.
