Get the diversification your portfolio deserves

Pluvia Capital was created from our passion in trading financial instruments.

We enable investors to build their own portfolio through self-directed managed accounts, also known as Micro Funds.

Investors have the benefit of control over their account, without the time commitment or knowledge that is typically required.

There is growing interest in Micro Funds as investors experience these benefits, and are able to diversify their portfolio. The expected returns are higher than traditional financial institutions. Investors in Micro Funds are both individuals and companies.

Pluvia Capital is proudly powered by our technology partner Union, a BlackStone Futures Product.

    The Team

    Pluvia is the Latin word for rain and we are excited to be your wealth rainmaker
    Tinus and Neil felt there should be more options for people who are interested in trading with financial instruments, without having the know-how and time, and that is why Pluvia Capital was established.

    Tinus Baard

    Tinus launched his career in the corporate world and soon realised that he was destined for entrepreneurship. Being highly motivated, with a knack for problem solving and innovation, he quickly entered this wonderful world. He completed his Bachelor of Commerce Degree whilst working full-time and only on commission. Soon thereafter he founded an Executive Search firm, a technology firm and now more recently co-founded Pluvia Capital along with Neil Walters. This firm speaks to his passion and commitment towards investing and building wealth whilst respecting the word INVESTMENT.
    NEIL WALTERS

    Neil Walters

    Neil initially worked in banking and moved on to a company called Global Trader. This is where he realised his passion for statistics and trading with various instruments. During the years that followed, he found himself in the sports betting arena. He became the Head Sports Trader for Sunbet and the GM for Trading and Technology – this soothed his appetite for the risk to outsmart gamblers. Starting Pluvia Capital with Tinus was a natural progression for Neil.
