Financial Prosperity With Peace of Mind
As I keep getting older, I only wish that everything in life would be as easy as working with Terra Nova. Trusting Terra Nova with my finances is a pleasure but also very profitable. Over time, my investments have flourished, tripling in value under their guidance.
What sets Terra Nova apart is their unwavering commitment to client satisfaction. Despite being based over a thousand miles away, they make it a point to maintain regular communication and even go the extra mile by visiting me annually in Naples, FL.
After the loss of my wife five years ago, financial security became paramount. My connection with Terra Nova has not only endured but strengthened over time. Today, I have complete confidence that my financial well-being is in capable hands, thanks to the seamless partnership between Fidelity and Terra Nova. Their dedication to my financial security has provided me with invaluable peace of mind.

Trusted and Personalized Service
When I was approaching retirement, I realized that I did not want to manage my retirement assets. I looked for a firm that would provide me with downside market protection and potential for reasonable upside growth to protect my capital from inflation. Terra Nova’s record during the financial crisis of 2008-2009 was excellent and I tested them with an initial account. Subsequently they have proved themselves and I have added additional amounts. Through the ups and downs over the past 15 years, I essentially have the same amount of invested capital while withdrawing approximately 5% per year to live on.
Also I wanted a firm that could work easily with my wife who had little experience in financial matters. Trust and personal service were essential. I have not been disappointed. Terra Nova has protected my capital doing better in down markets than other advisors and my income has not been eroded by inflation.
I have recommended them to a number of people, and Terra Nova has provided the service and quality to them as well.

Accessible and Reliable Communication
As a university faculty member, a good part of my retirement investments have been managed by TIAA, who also provide financial advisors. They have a good reputation for honesty and earnings, but as financial advisors, it seemed like a factory assembly line.
After trying one or two other persons or teams, eight or nine years ago a friend recommended Terra Nova. I quickly discovered the advantages of a really personal relationship, which included knowledge, patience, accessibility, and especially trust. I switched all of my moveable investments to Terra Nova, and I continue to rely on their advice now that I am drawing on my accounts.
I feel especially fortunate that when I have questions about either the market or my personal investments, I can always count on someone there to take as much time as I need to answer them. They have the right combination of caution and foresight.

Strategic Advice and Sound Strategies in any Climate
It gives me great pleasure to recommend the firm of Terra Nova Asset Management to friends and family in need of sound, strategic investment advice. Having been their client with four accounts that have grown impressively over the last 14 years, I have been very satisfied with the team’s performance and caution with the volatility of the market. The team has provided excellent service and reliability in up markets and down markets, always exercising good judgment.
In 2007-2008 the team converted 75-80% of client assets into cash positions before the 2008 financial crisis. The firm’s founder, Petra Peters, has been an expert in analyzing the bond markets. Her team also benefits from an international perspective due to managing the assets of many European family accounts over the years.
I am particularly grateful to Terra Nova for all the support the firm provided after my husband died in 2019. The team was so instrumental in helping me with estate and retirement planning during a very difficult time of change and emotional distress. With their help, I was able to design a retirement plan that serves my short-term and long-term needs. It was very comforting to see how important my well-being was to them. The team has also successfully managed the accounts of other family members and friends. The firm is like extended family to me.

Financial Clarity and Individualized Attention
Knowing I did not have the skills nor the time to manage my investments wisely, for decades my accounts were being managed by a banker and investment advisor who was a long-time friend of mine. Around 2020, I made some additional money from some real estate transactions. Since my old friend was battling health problems, I decided to find someone else to handle the additional funds.
In 2012, I was introduced through friends to the folks at Terra Nova. From our initial meetings, I was impressed by their collective and varied backgrounds, their knowledge, their outlook on the markets and investing, and their clarity in explaining the markets and their approach toward investing. I decided to open an account with Terra Nova.
Over the following years, sometimes while out of the country, I have found my experience to have been exactly as I had hoped it would be. The firm has done a very good job handling my investments, especially in keeping me apprised of what they were doing or intending to do with those investments, giving clear descriptions of their reasoning and the possible downsides. They are always patient and available to handle my questions whenever I call, and I appreciate the personal attention to my accounts.

Knowledgeable Guidance With a Lifelong Partnership
I have found Terra Nova USA to be an asset management firm specialized in serving international clientele. I am an internationally working artist who is also involved in the art field related to academia. I appreciate the advantages of their firm not expanding beyond a certain scale, allowing for intimate personal relationships with each individual client. The relationship is long term, I feel truly understood, thoroughly counseled according to my needs, and educated in market matters in such a way that I can weather market fluctuations without panic and still feel safe.
In the age of communication independent from location, the staff is immediately accessible, friendly, patient, thorough, and eager to help whenever my needs change. I feel part of a family, not fodder for a business!
