Our mission

Two students sharing what fascinates us about investing.

Surava Capital is a side project. We are two students from Switzerland who got hooked on markets, the economy and how money actually works, and we want to pass that fascination on to other young people.

We explain things the way we would to a friend: plain language, no jargon, no sales pitch. We are still learning ourselves and we say so. Nothing here is investment advice, just what we find worth understanding.

Our roadmap

Where we are, and where we're headed

Today

Building in the open

Free macro commentary, market education, and a public trading journal where every call is documented, including the ones we get wrong.

Next

Building the track record

Growing the Insights library and the Trades journal, so there is an honest, public record of our thinking long before we ever ask anyone to act on it.

In progress

Earning the credentials

Completing our studies and pursuing the CFA designation, so the expertise behind the commentary is formal, not just self-taught.

The milestone

Registering properly

Entering the Swiss adviser register under FIDLEG, so that when we offer personal investment advice, it is done compliantly and above board.

The goal

Independent, fee-only advice for a new generation

Honest, conflict-free guidance built for young Swiss investors, with portfolio management added as we grow into it.

The founders

Who's behind Surava Capital

Two of us. No call centre, no hand-offs, no invented team.
