The company was started by, and is run by New Zealanders. The managing director is Robert Holroyd.

In a career spanning 27 years Robert has been continually involved in Commodity and Currency trading principally through the futures markets. Early in his career Robert developed a high profile in New Zealand’s unsophisticated and highly regulated financial market. He was responsible for a number of industry innovations.

Notably in the early 80’s He was responsible for the establishment of Buttle and Co Futures Limited, the first broker in New Zealand to obtain Reserve Bank approval to trade on foreign futures exchanges.

Robert then moved on and established and managed Qtron Holdings Limited International Futures and Bullion business.

In 1986 Robert left Qtron to establish his own company, managing foreign exchange risk for corporates and high net worth individuals. He was approached in 1987 by Hanseatic Group Inc., a US based foreign exchange adviser with whom he subsequently developed a joint venture. Becoming a Director of the firm and being responsible for operations in the Pacific Rim and Australasia.

In the early 90’s, supported and funded by his contacts in the US and Japan and as a natural progression from his activities in the FX markets, Robert established himself as a CTA under the name of HCM Global Limited (HCM). Investors included the US based Commodities Corporation.

Progression of trading style and encouragement from his US based mentors led Robert into a collaboration with Australian based partners looking to develop a new systematic and value accretive approach to building and protecting commodity wealth. This approach was based on the philosophy that commodities were often overlooked and/or misunderstood by the main stream asset management community.
