About

Torva Capital takes a focused and fundamental approach to investing in publicly traded companies and corporate credit. Avoiding loss and generating consistent returns is always our primary goal. Utilizing a long-term, research-driven value investing strategy, the firm emphasizes thoroughness, hard work, and creativity as it seeks out deeply undervalued companies and securities where we can invest with a 'margin of safety'. Investing across the capital structure allows us to optimize positioning to achieve this goal as market conditions continuously evolve. We are fully invested alongside our clients, and our attractive fee structure is designed to provide additional alignment. 

Torva Capital was founded in 2020 by Matthew Grunwald, CFA, with the goal of providing independent, institutional quality portfolio management of public equity and corporate credit investments for our clients. Matthew was previously a registered portfolio manager at RPIA, a leading Canadian alternative credit fund manager, where he led healthcare, technology, media, telecom, and energy investment research, overseeing billions of dollars of credit and equity investments and generating consistent returns for the firm's largely institutional client base. As an early employee, he helped build out firm's research team, as well as adopt a more fundamentally driven strategy which saw RPIA's AUM grow from approximately $800 million to over $5 billion during his tenure. He has also served as Chief Investment Officer at PaceZero Capital Partners, a Canadian private credit firm, overseeing research, due diligence, and investment structuring. Prior to transitioning to the investment management industry, he served as an Engineer Officer in the Canadian Armed Forces and earned a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from McGill University.
