About Bravura


 

The Name “Bravura”

We are often asked about the origins of our unusual name.  A musical term, bravura, invites the musician to play a particular passage of music with 'great skill and brilliance'.  The word is also used to describe the display of 'great daring'. Pronounced: Bra-vu-ra

When the company was founded, our approach required the integration of highly technical skills and, which was applied differently to the conventional way. 

This continues to be the case today.  Given this, Bravura as a name seemed, and is, perfect.  Not only does it describe our approach, it also inspires us to continually strive for innovative, courageous solutions to our clients' needs.

Shareholders

We are proud to say that Bravura is 80% owned by management and staff.  The remaining 20% is held by Dr Christo Wiese, a leading figure in South African business

Our Roots

Bravura opened for business in late 1999, with the specific intention of filling a market gap for integrated and innovative equity and debt solutions.  Corporate finance houses of the day tended to focus on equity and most lacked substantial debt structuring skills - a situation that persists. 

The company’s founding members were Soria Hay and Ian Matthews, two of the business’s executive directors to this day.

Equity & Debt

The whole business is positioned to achieve the holy grail of integrated equity and debt solutions, though we also offer pure equity and pure debt. We are not a bank. Nor do we have any formal ties to any existing banking group.

This allows us to raise funding from the cheapest source, and work with all the parties in the market without loyalties or preference for a specific individual or group.
