LSE:HAN (Hansa Investment Company Limited)

Hansa Investment Company Limited previously Hansa Trust PLC and Scottish and Mercantile Investment Trust has been closely associated with the Salomon Family since the 1950s. The Salomon Family are the beneficiaries of family trusts that are themselves substantial shareholders of Hansa Investment Company Limited. Further they are actively involved in its management with William Salomon currently serving as a Director of Hansa Investment Company Limited as well as being the Senior Partner of the Portfolio Manager Hansa Capital Partners LLP. William and before him his father Walter have contributed greatly in building a public owned and independently run long-term investment vehicle which enables private and professional investors alike to access investments not normally available to them. A perfect example of this approach is the holding in Ocean Wilson Holdings Ltd.
